Include the refcards in the release tarball

2021-10-07T15:53:25+00:00

* make-dist (possibly_non_vc_files): Include *.pdf files, to
include the produced refcards in the tarball.  This was lost when
'make-dist' was rewritten for Emacs 27.

Always include the test/ directory in tarfiles

2021-05-10T17:42:53+00:00

In hindsight, it's hard to see why not including it was ever an option.
* make-dist: Always include the test/ directory.
(with_tests): Remove.
(--tests, --no-tests): Make these options no-ops.
* Makefile.in (mostlyclean_dirs, maintainer_clean_dirs): Add "test".
(mostlyclean, clean, distclean, maintainer-clean):
Remove special-casing for "test".
($(CHECK_TARGETS)): Simplify.

Fix out-of-source make-dist problems

2019-06-08T21:42:10+00:00

Problem with jisx2131-filter reported by Phillip Lord in:
https://lists.gnu.org/r/emacs-devel/2019-06/msg00147.html
* admin/charsets/Makefile.in (SED_SCRIPT):
Put it in $(srcdir), which is not necessarily the working directory.
($(SED_SCRIPT)): Rename from jisx2131-filter.  All uses changed.
(clean): Do not remove SED_SCRIPT.
(extraclean): Remove it here instead.
* make-dist (possibly_non_vc_files): Remove src/emacs-module.h.
Although it is portable and could be distributed in the tarball,
it's too much hassle to do that, so let each builder make it.

Distribute test cases in tarballs by default

2019-05-16T17:51:27+00:00

* INSTALL, INSTALL.REPO, admin/make-tarball.txt:
Mention ‘make check’.
* configure.ac: Update comment.
* etc/NEWS: Say that tarballs have a test directory.
* make-dist (with_tests): Default to "yes".
Add an option --no-tests to make it "no".
