This directory contains virgin copies of the original distribution files
on a "vendor" branch. Do not, under any circumstances, attempt to upgrade
the files in this directory via patches and a cvs commit.
To upgrade to a newer version of libgmp, when it is available:
1. Unpack the new version into an empty directory.
[Do not make ANY changes to the files, except remove the
files/directories for architectures not supported by FreeBSD
in the mpn/ dir]
2. Use the command:
cvs import -m 'Virgin import of FSF libgmp v<versiOn>' \
src/contrib/libgmp FSF v<version>
3. Follow the instructions printed out in step 2 to resolve any
conflicts between local FreeBSD changes and the newer version.
Do not, under any circumstances, deviate from this procedure.
To make local changes to libgmp, simply patch and commit to the main
branch (aka HEAD). Never make local changes on the FSF branch.
All local changes should be submitted to "bug-gmp@prep.ai.mit.edu" for
inclusion in the next vendor release of libgmp.
