Description Jeff (JD) Horelick (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-12-10 19:25:15 UTC 
As of git-1.7.8, it has supported profiling builds, it would be great if the USE flag to allow building this was added. It is done on the build side by doing: "make profile-all"

Thanks

Reproducible: Always

Provide a patch.

It's not safe at the moment to run test in the middle of profiling like that. Look at the work that goes into src_test to make sure tests will pass, because a lot of them don't (like all of git-svn right now in 9999/1.7.9)

Implement a patch per my comment 1, and and I'll review it for you.
