2011-03-20Style change: return(x) --> return xDan McGee1-4/+4
This was discussed and more or less agreed upon on the mailing list. A huge checkin, but if we just do it and let people adjust the pain will end soon enough. Rebasing should be relatively straighforward for anyone that sees conflicts; just be sure you use the new return style if possible. The following semantic patch was used to do the change, along with some hand-massaging in order to preserve parenthesis where appropriate: The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows, although some hand-massaging was done in order to keep parenthesis where appropriate: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @@ expression a; @@ - return(a); + return a; // </smpl> A macros_file was also provided with the following content: Additional steps taken, mainly for ASSERT() macros: $ sed -i -e 's#return(NULL)#return NULL#' lib/libalpm/*.c $ sed -i -e 's#return(-1)#return -1#' lib/libalpm/*.c Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>

2008-08-23fix HACKING asciidoc file.Xavier Chantry1-18/+18
The HACKING file seemed to be broken : http://archlinux.org/pacman/HACKING.html And indeed, running asciidoc HACKING issued a number of warnings : WARNING: HACKING: line 27: missing [paradef-default] C-style entry type: numbered : expected 1 got 3 WARNING: HACKING: line 44: list item 3 out of sequence WARNING: HACKING: line 49: missing [paradef-default] C-style entry type: numbered : expected 2 got 4 WARNING: HACKING: line 62: list item 4 out of sequence type: numbered : expected 3 got 5 WARNING: HACKING: line 69: list item 5 out of sequence type: numbered : expected 4 got 6 WARNING: HACKING: line 75: list item 6 out of sequence type: numbered : expected 5 got 7 WARNING: HACKING: line 83: list item 7 out of sequence WARNING: HACKING: line 104: missing [paradef-default] C-style entry WARNING: HACKING: line 116: missing [paradef-default] C-style entry WARNING: HACKING: line 126: missing [paradef-default] C-style entry I just followed the syntax example there : http://www.methods.co.nz/asciidoc/userguide.html#X56 And all is fine now :) Signed-off-by: Xavier Chantry <shiningxc@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>

2007-11-20Turn HACKING into an asciidoc documentDan McGee1-33/+58
Add some hints so we can use asciidoc on the HACKING document. It is still readable as text, but a simple 'asciidoc HACKING' command will give you a nice pretty guide now. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>

2007-03-05This commit looks much more monumental than it is. Almost all just #includeDan McGee1-2/+32
reordering and adding ones that were forgotten (noticed when trying to compile after reordering). * Updated the HACKING file to include information on #include usage. * print -> vprint in "making dir" function in pactest.
2007-02-26* Added a small note to HACKINGAaron Griffin1-0/+3
* Moved re-pacman to contrib/ as it's probably not as useful as the other stuff in scripts/
