## Distribution tarballs from Mercurial repositories
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Creating distribution tarballs can now be made out of projects based on
|
|
|
|
|
Mercurial. As before, this remains possible only with the Ninja backend.

## Keyword argument verification
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Meson will now check the keyword arguments used when calling any function
|
2017-06-27 01:39:00 +08:00
|
|
|
and print a warning if any of the keyword arguments is not known. In the
|
|
|
|
|
future this will become a hard error.

## Add support for Genie to Vala compiler
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Vala compiler has an alternative syntax, Genie, that uses the `.gs`
|
|
|
|
|
file extension. Meson now recognises and uses Genie files.
