plan9front - issue #218

Duplicate files in repo


Posted on Sep 28, 2014 by Swift Bird

plan9front contains several identical files with identical names except for case. These duplicates are possibly unnecessary, and additionally prevent the repository from being cloned on a case-sensitive filesystem.

The relevant identical, similarly named files are:

sys/lib/postscript/troff/Hx and sys/lib/postscript/troff/HX sys/lib/troff/font/devutf/Hb and sys/lib/troff/font/devutf/HB sys/lib/troff/font/devutf/Hi and sys/lib/troff/font/devutf/HI sys/lib/troff/font/devutf/Hx and sys/lib/troff/font/devutf/HX sys/lib/troff/font/devutf/charlib/lH and sys/lib/troff/font/devutf/charlib/LH sys/lib/troff/font/devutf/charlib/rc and sys/lib/troff/font/devutf/charlib/RC sys/lib/troff/font/devutf/charlib/rh and sys/lib/troff/font/devutf/charlib/rH sys/src/cmd/postscript/devpost.add/c1 and sys/src/cmd/postscript/devpost.add/C1 sys/src/cmd/postscript/devpost.add/c2 and sys/src/cmd/postscript/devpost.add/C2 sys/src/cmd/postscript/devpost.add/c3 and sys/src/cmd/postscript/devpost.add/C3

Unless they are critical, duplicate files should be removed.

the files are character names and used by tr2post.
