Hi

there was a mention of my old (last year December) patch for Lazarus Configure Build dialog. The Mantis issue was:
#15336: "Build Profiles for Configure "Build Lazarus" dialog"

I have now "rebased" it to apply to latest trunk. The process was rather difficult. I first applied it to the original revision but even that created conflicts. I don't know exactly why. After solving the conflicts I tried to "rebase" against the trunk HEAD and got a lot more conflicts. I solved them, preserving changes made in trunk including the new UpdateRevisionInc feature.

I used git. I will not create new SVN format patches now, it seems to be prone to error when there are many modified and added files. Instead I can create git format patches (pity they are not compatible). I also published the "buildprofiles" branch under my GitHub repository, forked from Graeme's mirror repository. Graeme used the master branch in a "wrong" way and thus buildprofiles seems to have many commits although it only has few of them.

To test it:
$ git clone git://github.com/JuhaManninen/lazarus.git lazarus_gitmirror
$ cd lazarus_gitmirror
$ git checkout buildprofiles
$ make all

Later I will rebase the branch often to keep it in sync with trunk HEAD. Git makes that very easy.

I think I figured out how to fix the master branch in Lazarus GitHub mirror. I'll do that on Monday when I'm as a extra note, the FPC git mirror doesn't have this problem, only the Lazarus mirror.
