Working on #124 .

Work plan:

  1. Cherry pick CI changes from master using procedure described here MPS needs a Git-specific procedures section #190 (comment)
  2. Fix up build issues, as far as possible by cherry picking from master.

…le with all the versions of Clang that we need to support.

 Change: 196189

(cherry picked from commit 8a5118d)
Git version 2.32 added the backwards-incompatible "feature" that
.gitignore files that are symbolic links are ignored. Since all our
.gitignore files are symbolic links to the .p4ignore file in the same
directory, for compatibility between the Perforce and Git mirrors of
the repository, this broke "git status" for us and all our users.

See https://github.com/git/git/blob/master/Documentation/RelNotes/2.32.0.txt

This change swaps the files so that .p4ignore is a symbolic link to
.gitignore in each case.

Notes on tactics.

I searched for relevant commits to master using commands like git log --oneline --first-parent -E --grep '^Merg.*ci' master then attempted to cherry pick them using commands like git cherry-pick -x -m 1 1b5ab8313. This worked when the same change could be applied.

However, this isn't always the case. For example, branch/2021-01-10/implicit-conversion can't be applied as-is to version 1.115 because it depends on an earlier branch branch/2016-03-04/spare-fraction, but that branch modifies the behaviour of the MPS and should not be merged into version 1.115. So some thought will be required to make an equivalent change.

@rptb1 rptb1 added this to the Perforce Divorce milestone Mar 8, 2023
Xcode 10.0 no longer supports building for IA-32, so the MPS can no longer support building for xci3ll using Xcode.
Revise example Scheme interpreter so that it can be compiled even if getopt.h includes unistd.h (as it does on macOS).

Manual is up (sans designs) at https://memory-pool-system--192.org.readthedocs.build/en/192/

At this point the macOS build is breaking because Xcode no longer supports i386 (since version 10 I think) and I have limited access to macOS.
