Getting the version string from git means the commit version changes each time
we commit any patch, which means we need to use --force to install firmware
when building fwupd against a version that should be compatible.
It is also very inconvenient not bumping the release version for git snapshots
as firmware can no longer depend on the "planned" release triplet.
tl;dr: A good idea for Flashrom, not so awesome for me.
Add various fixes to enable us to build a selection of useful USB plugins.
Also, skip tests that don't make sense on WIN32 or that will not work.
With much help from Mario Limonciello <mario.limonciello@dell.com> -- Thanks!
For now this is happening on every master build, but in the future
after it's working reliably it should be restricted to only tagged
builds.
To accomplish this, swap a build from circlei and travisci that
will save docs to publish.
This adds a script which can check for ABI breaks between two Git
revisions:
$ ./contrib/ci/check-abi.sh
The CI is set up to run it automatically between the tip of the branch
being tested and the last release tag.
Based on the work by Mathieu Bridon <bochecha@daitauha.fr>, many thanks.
