You feel it's reliable enough now? Hi Carlos, I noticed you included my window-size saving patch in this release. You feel it’s reliable enough now?

I’m just starting to use git so I’m holding high hopes for giggle!
One question:
In the roadmap you mention plans to put in build support for make etc. What about us poor souls that use other build systems (ant,bjam,etc.). Can we expect some love? :)

Fortunately most build systems seam to follow a very similar pattern:
make (looks up Makefile in cur dir and executes)
make test (looks up target test in Makefile and executes)
ant (looks up build.xml in cur dir and executes)
ant test (looks up target test in build.xml and executes)

So some sort of general way to specify build system would be greatly appreciated :)

Probably the best way would be for devs to be able to specify default build system in something like ~/.giggle and project specific build system in something like PROJECTDIR/.giggle (for those that are coding in multiple languages and enviroments).

Bah, here you are just releasing 0.2 and Im already requesting my pet features…just put me in .gitignore and enjoy your release, it looks realy good :)

It would be a nice thing to have when reviewing and integrating patches together with some simple editing support though.

[user]

giggle looks promising, thanks :)
