The demon won't be done for a long time, but we have the 'other'
idea for a solution in this thread:
'Re: make upgrade overwrites /etc/mail/mailer.conf'
Which is to make 'make upgrade' aware of target files that are
under CVS management. If someone would like to work on this I do not
think it would be all that difficult. It would involve creating an
install script (by using the INSTALL= override that the Makefile's
support) which checks to see whether the target is under CVS management
by checking to see if the target directory/CVS/Entries file (if it
exists) contains the target file name, and then does a 3-way merge
instead of overwriting the file.
The 'make upgrade' target would override INSTALL to point to this
special script and that should do it.
Would you like to take a shot at it ?
