I noticed that there were some missing files in gdbserver's gitignore
(some generated register format .c files). Of course the easy fix would
be to add those files to .gitignore, but I think we can do a better job,
so that we don't have to worry about adding generated files to
.gitignore or the clean Makefile target.
I suggest naming all generated source files -generated.c. This way, we
can use a single rule in .gitignore and do a "rm -f *-generated.c" to
clean them up.
New in v2:
- Don't rename version.o and xml-builtin.o
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* .gitignore: Remove generated files, replace with wildcard.
* (clean): Replace removal of generated files with wildcard.
(version.c): Replace with...
(version-generated.c): ...this.
(xml-builtin.c): Replace with...
(xml-builtin-generated.c): ...this.
(%-ipa.o: %-generated.c, %.o: %-generated.c): New rules.
(%.c: *regformats*): Replace with...
(%-generated.c: *regformats*): ...this.
This patch adds a bunch of generated files to gdb's gitignore files.
There are still a bunch of "stamp" files that are not ignored, but I
think the rule for them should be put in the top-level gitignore.
Users and developers are encouraged to build out-of-tree, but some
people prefer the simplicity to build in-tree, so it should be useful
for them.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* .gitignore: Ignore more files.
* data-directory/.gitignore: Likewise.
gdb/doc/ChangeLog:
* .gitignore: New file.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* .gitinore: Ignore more files.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* .gitignore: New file.
