Re: Announcing `autocrossgen'

[Bryan Hundven <bryanhundven at gmail dot com>]

Per, List,

To get context correct "more friendly to developers". So say you are
working on binutils, gcc, glibc, musl-libc, etc...

If you are using crosstool-ng, you have to save steps if you want to
not build the prereqs for building gcc (say you are working on gcc
specifically) over and over again. autocrossgen's build system uses
GNU/Make rather then Bash. So you can just delete the build/gcc*, type
make and the build will leave off at configuring and building gcc
instead of starting the whole build process over from scratch.
