#561: Use subdirectories when generating Formaline tarballs -----------------------------------+---------------------------------------- Reporter: eschnett | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: minor | Milestone: Component: EinsteinToolkit thorn | Version: Keywords: | -----------------------------------+---------------------------------------- When there are many thorn, the directory used to generate the Formaline tarballs can contain many files, likely reducing I/O performance. This patch uses a subdirectory for each thorn, which improves the directory layout and should also improve performance.
This patch also adds all thorns to the git repository at once, instead of using a single make rule for each thorn. Since git repositories cannot be accessed for writing in parallel, using multiple make rules leads to long wait times for the git repository lock, which is avoided if one explicitly serialises this.
