### How to install a forked git-subtree
|
||||
|
||||
Using git-subtree with `rustc` requires a patched git to make it work.
|
||||
The PR that is needed is [here](https://github.com/gitgitgadget/git/pull/493).
|
||||
Use the following instructions to install it:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
git clone git@github.com:tqc/git.git
|
||||
cd git
|
||||
git checkout tqc/subtree
|
||||
make
|
||||
make install
|
||||
cd contrib/subtree
|
||||
make
|
||||
cp git-subtree ~/bin
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Then, do a sync with this command:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
PATH="$HOME/bin:$PATH" ~/bin/git-subtree push -P compiler/rustc_codegen_gcc/ ../rustc_codegen_gcc/ sync_branch_name
|
||||
cd ../rustc_codegen_gcc
|
||||
git checkout master
|
||||
git pull
|
||||
git checkout sync_branch_name
|
||||
git merge master
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To send the changes to the rust repo:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
cd ../rust
|
||||
git pull origin master
|
||||
git checkout -b subtree-update_cg_gcc_YYYY-MM-DD
|
||||
PATH="$HOME/bin:$PATH" ~/bin/git-subtree pull --prefix=compiler/rustc_codegen_gcc/ https://github.com/rust-lang/rustc_codegen_gcc.git master
|
||||
git push
|
||||
|
||||
# Immediately merge the merge commit into cg_gcc to prevent merge conflicts when syncing from rust-lang/rust later.
|
||||
PATH="$HOME/bin:$PATH" ~/bin/git-subtree push -P compiler/rustc_codegen_gcc/ ../rustc_codegen_gcc/ sync_branch_name
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
TODO: write a script that does the above.

### How to use [mem-trace](https://github.com/antoyo/mem-trace)
|
||||
|
||||
`rustc` needs to be built without `jemalloc` so that `mem-trace` can overload `malloc` since `jemalloc` is linked statically, so a `LD_PRELOAD`-ed library won't a chance to intercept the calls to `malloc`.

# git subtree sync
|
||||
|
||||
`rustc_codegen_gcc` is a subtree of the rust compiler. As such, it needs to be
|
||||
sync from time to time to ensure changes that happened on their side are also
|
||||
included on our side.

### Syncing with rust compiler
|

|

Do a sync with this command:

git checkout master

git pull
|

git checkout sync_branch_name
|
||||
git merge master
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
