I am not that familiar with git but I think he uses a git snapshot |
| 18 |
already by setting this options in the findcruft2 ebuild: |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
EGIT_REPO_URI="git://git.xnull.de/findcruft2.git" |
| 21 |
EGIT_TREE="6b8c800f33aee3dc0bd9751ff1db2bf61668ff10" |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
This will checkout a specific git tree and is somewhat the same as a snapshot. |
| 24 |

Afaik these binaries are all the same and are there for compatibility |
| 33 |
with old versions and will be removed in future versions. As for now |
| 34 |
you can call "git some-command" and "git-some-command" which offers |
| 35 |
the same functionality, but in the future with these binaries removed |
| 36 |
only "git some-command" will be possible. |
