Distribution of files
---------------------
zsh is distributed in two parts: a "src" distribution containing all
the source files (roughly, but not exactly, corresponding to the CVS
tree), and a "doc" distribution containing some pre-built files from
the documentation directory. All the files in the "doc" distribution
may be generated from files in the "src" distribution with appropriate
freely available tools.
To indicate which files should be distributed, each directory in the CVS
tree includes a file .distfiles that sets any number of a set of Bourne
shell (scalar) parameters. The value of the parameter is expanded as a
set of standard command line arguments. Basic globbing is allowed in the
values.
The following parameters are currently used:
- DISTFILES_SRC is a list of files from the directory for the "src"
distribution.
- DISTFILES_DOC is a list of files from the directory for the "doc"
distribution.
- DISTFILES_NOT is a list of files that will not be included in a
distribution, but that need to be present in the CVS tree. This
variable is not used by the zsh build process and is present for
the convenience of external checks.
