Hi,

a lot of files generated by configure confuse Git.
why don't you suggest to compile in the build/ directory? Or improve
.gitignore?

I would recommend these instructions:

git clone git://git.savannah.gnu.org/src-highlite.git
cd src-highlite
autoreconf -i
cd build
../configure
make
su -c 'make install'

This would make life easier for "non-developers contributors" like me :-)


Ciao Federico

usually, shadow builds are the recommended way to compile sources, so I didn't mention it in the documentation, but you're right about it :) please file a ticket at

https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?group=src-highlite

in particular, if you've already built it in the same directory, and you want to provider an improved .gitignore, please do so.

cheers
        Lorenzo
