I maintain a private git repo where the org-mode git repo is included. I use it on several machines, both windows and linux, and also on a stick which I can use on the terribly restricted and firewalled computers at work (which curiously allow me to run emacs from the stick!). I used to include org-mode as a "fake submodule" (http://debuggable.com/posts/git-fake-submodules:4b563ee4-f3cc-4061-967e-0e48cbdd56cb) but wanted to learn more about git so I changed to a real submodule. This was annoying because then I could no longer just pull from the repo to the stick and have my new org-mode with me, I needed to update the submodule on the stick as well, which was more work than before. I then changed to using a git subtree for org-mode and lots of other bits and pieces that I wanted handy, even behind the firewall at work. This works great except for one thing: org-version is set to N/A (on topic again I hope). As far as I have been able to gather with my non-existent developer skills the org-version stems from mk/default.mk and so could be adjusted in local.mk, but I am unable to figure out where I should get it from, and how to adjust it. Can you enlighten me? Johan -- Johan Sandblom, MD PhD m +46735521477 What is wanted is not the will to believe, but the will to find out, which is the exact opposite --Bertrand Russell
