Given the strictness of FPC with regards to compiler and build versions, I find it very useful and disk space is not so expensive now on general purpose computers. Do you need to track some remote repositories that change often? That is one reason for not wanting to use that method. I am sure Graeme can help you with some Git hook mojo when upstream changes :) -- Frank Church ======================= http://devblog.brahmancreations.com -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus.freepascal.org http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
