Joachim Fabulous.
But your email will soon disappear into the mists of time, and the page itself does not convey the same information. Is there a wiki page, kept up to date, that explains exactly how to read the performance results?

Same | with branches that often merge or cherry-pick from master. But in the | common case of a linear, possibly rebased, feature branch, it should | work fine. | | Greetings, | Joachim | | ¹ Which, I think, is the youngest commit also reachable from master. Or | something like that. Consult "man git merge-base" if you want a little | mind teaser. | | -- | Joachim “nomeata” Breitner | m...@joachim-breitner.de • | https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3a%2f%2fwww.jo | achim- | breitner.de%2f&data=01%7c01%7csimonpj%40064d.mgd.microsoft.com%7cec0ca8 | 588956494efa3308d36baf36f5%7c72f988bf86f141af91ab2d7cd011db47%7c1&sdata | =ya%2bnaZWlbasw8BSIICImvWjh1x%2fb6%2bTsHJuKRGzu2Rg%3d | XMPP: nome...@joachim-breitner.de • OpenPGP-Key: 0xF0FBF51F | Debian Developer: nome...@debian.org _______________________________________________ ghc-devs mailing list ghc-devs@haskell.org http://mail.haskell.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/ghc-devs
