Find the last working revision using a binary search. Start e.g. with
rev. 11000: if works, try 11322 etc. With this scheme a handfull tests
give you the last working revision and we know which revision broke
things and needs to be fixed :) A small script could even automate this.
Alright then. Because this is just an experimental project, I'll do it
in my spare time. Hopefully I would have the result by the end of this
week.
That's a matter of a few minutes ;)
Using the script at
<http://svn.freepascal.org/svn/fpcbuild/scripts/florian/unix/searchrev>
it took 12 min without any interaction to find a breaking revision for
some x86-64 problem. I used this script before to find a problem and
improved it slightly:
End of output:
Testing revision 11377 failed
Last working revision: 11376 (needed 9 runs)
real 12m19.018s
user 6m18.684s
sys 0m47.935s
