Delete branch "remove-deleted-sdl-files"
Deleting a branch is permanent. Although the deleted branch may continue to exist for a short time before it actually gets removed, it CANNOT be undone in most cases. Continue?
They were already removed in SDL upstream but the update mechanism did not remove them in this repository.
For example, upstream SDL renamed
README.txt
toREADME.md
in3c78c211d57de4e9d953bf71d49d2ee313bbff34
, soREADME.txt
should have been removed. However, the relevant commit (5dbb928ff2
) only addsREADME.md
and leaves deleted files in the repository.Some of the old files were causing build failures when the SDL external was used (see #45, which only received a workaround in #46; this PR should be the actual fix for the problem).
A fix should probably also be incorporated into the mechanism that updates the repository, which is probably missing a way to delete files that were deleted in a newer version (like rsync’s
--delete
). However, I didn’t find such a tool and don’t know if it is public, so I couldn’t fix it.good catch, I completely forgot about files that get removed upstream. Will have to look into a proper solution for that later
Don't worry about the failing CI, that seems due to some stuff related to linuxdeployqt, not this change
