In the above, Emmanuel's name is very prominant. It was their patch that was committed.On Sep 19, 9:12pm, Andrew Cagney wrote:2002-09-09 Elena Zannoni <ezannoni@redhat.com> From: Emmanuel Thome' <thome@lix.polytechnique.fr> * top.c (init_main): Set rl_terminal_name. to reflect both who committed and who created the change.Yes, I do it that way too from time to time usually for smaller changes that I might have to adapt somewhat. Jim's work is much more substantial and only minor changes were required. I felt that Jim's name should be prominent in the ChangeLog for this change.
The accepted GDB convention is per the above. It means that the ChangeLog stands on its own and does not depend on access to either the CVS repository or the mailing lists. It leaves no confusion over who committed and who authored the change.If you really need to know who committed a change, the CVS logs and mailing list traffic are available. Also, I believe there is ample precedent in other projects (e.g. gcc) for the way I did things.
Can you please at least create a bug report ``some later date'' work can be tracked?Did the WCHAR problem get resolved?Yes, in the sense that we're taking Jim's patch as-is and we'll worry about wchar_t changes at some later date. See http://sources.redhat.com/ml/gdb-patches/2002-09/msg00261.html
