Some parts got a bit confusing over time, also there was repetition.
In this commit:
* the release fact gathering routines have been moved to separate
module,
* some less useful routines have been removed,
* some internal interfaces have been changed to allow for more
readable code.
Fix up the path joining logic:
* For obvious reasons, we panic if group's root is empty.
* DESTDIR can be empty, that's normal for installs such as when MKit
installs its own dogfood.
* Root (which sometimes starts with PREFIX) may or may not start with
slash; relative root such as that is also OK for installs like MKit
or TFKit.
* Furthermore, DESTDIR may or may not end with slash; we have to address
that and avoid joining the names.
Overview of changes:
* Added sanity checks for debstuff target
* Added new tokens: __MKIT_PROJ_PKGNAME__ and __MKIT_SELF_VERSION__
* Minor code and meta-data cleanups
Overview of changes:
* Added debstuff target to help Debian maintainers
* `make clean` removes directories as well
* Rewrote route with sane(r) approach ro targets
Simplify maintenance by moving list of valid_targets to a separate
function. Both router and usage message are now consumers thereof.
This also changes format of the usage message.
Overview of changes:
* Move all project meta-data to mkit.ini (obsolete config.mk)
* Add tagline to common peoject meta-data
* Use more qualified tokens for replacement
* Improve mini-changelog
Fix lasttag expression to get "latest tag *so far*"
Turns out that the old version has always shown the last tag available
instead of last tag available *so far*, i.e. up to the current HEAD.
This made it impossible to determine version correctly when an older
version was checked out, i.e. installing or packaging an older version
would result in broken versioning.
