Delete Branch "adschm/firmware:autocommit"
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?
Backport support for COMMITCOUNT and AUTORELEASE from OpenWrt.
COMMITCOUNT allows to have the PKG_RELEASE calculated automatically
based on the number of commits for the package folder.
AUTORELEASE will count the number of commits since the last upstream
bump. This is relevant for packages with PKG_VERSION or
PKG_SOURCE_DATE set, but will not work for us since it assumes the
use of certain identifiers in commit titles.
COMMITCOUNT works fine for most of our packages, with the following
exceptions:
fff-nodewatcher would yield a commit count of 55, while the
current PKG_RELEASE is 61. Thus, we do not touch it for now.
Packages that have been renamed will start counting from 1 after
the rename, since folder renames are not tracked by git. This
will result in descreasing PKG_RELEASE after the change for
these packages.
However, since moving essentially creates a new package anyway,
counting from 1 makes sense conceptually, and PKG_RELEASE is
still replaced for these packages.
alfred-json and fff-macnock use upstream code and thus would
normally require AUTORELEASE. As discussed above, this will
not work for us, so just leave these two untouched.
Note that all this is quite irrelevant for the way we use packages
currently, as without opkg PKG_RELEASE does not matter to us anyway.
So, let's just be happy about not having to bump PKG_RELEASE
anymore, while keeping the basic functionality intact.
The only package where the PKG_RELEASE is actually used for
something is fff-nodewatcher, where the version will be displayed
in the Monitoring.

Was ist eigentlich damit?
COMMITCOUNT ist bereits in OpenWrt 21.02 enthalten, wir brauchen also nichts mehr backporten.
Leider haben wir mittlerweile 2 Packages mehr, wo das nicht mehr hinhaut:
Rebased, neue Packages hinzugefügt und mit diesen beiden Ausnahmen unter #202 submitted.
Closed in favor of #202
