Have an app that uses git for version control. A file called mkmf.log keeps showing up in the app root, somewhat randomly. What is it?
It contains:
find_executable: checking for git... -------------------- yes
--------------------
Relevant info from ls:
$ ls -lah | grep mk
-rw-r--r--@ 1 kyle staff 85B Dec 2 15:44 mkmf.log
It’s capistrano using mkmf to find the git executable. Cap was changed to use mkmf to better support windows, but the change has been rolled back due to the creation of the mkmf.log file. See: https://capistrano.lighthouseapp.com/projects/8716/tickets/127
