[Qgis-developer] svn_marker?

[William Kyngesburye]

When I overhauled the Mac cmake build, there was one part I thought was odd but I left it alone.  The src/mac/contents info.plist custom target has a SVN_MARKER as the dependency.  This works in SVN source, but now in the release source it doesn't work.  There is an error that there is no rule to make SVN_MARKER-NOTFOUND.

What does it do?  I found it used in some other projects, where it seems to be some dummy dependency

A search turned up some SVN_MARKER usage in old pre-1.0 versions of the source, so I wonder if it was something where a better way to do what it does was found but this Mac target was skipped?

It could be a moot point later, since I've found that there is a better way to package the Mac application bundle built into cmake now, but the current method must be fixed for release until I can figure that out.
