Reduce development burden by getting rid of NMake files that are manually kept up to date. For continued NMake support please generate NMake project files using CMake.

Walkthrough

The pull request removes all components related to the NMake build system. This includes deletion of the GitHub Actions workflow for NMake, multiple Makefiles designed for building the zlib library on Windows (targeting various architectures), and associated utility scripts (a dependency checker and a replacement script). In addition, the README documentation has been updated to eliminate the CI badge and textual references to NMake support.

Changes

File(s) Change Summary
.github/workflows/nmake.yml Removed the GitHub Actions workflow for NMake, including its concurrency configuration and matrix-based build setups.
win32/Makefile.a64, win32/Makefile.arm, win32/Makefile.msc Deleted Makefiles that defined build configurations for the zlib library using NMake on Windows for various architectures.
win32/depcheck.cpp, win32/replace.vbs Removed utility scripts: one for dependency checking of NMake Makefiles and one for performing text replacements.
README.md Updated CI section and features list to remove the NMake badge and eliminate NMake references from the supported build systems.

3-3: Removal of NMake CI Badge Confirmed
The GitHub Actions row now exclusively displays badges for the CMake and Configure workflows, which aligns with the PR objective to remove support for NMake builds from the CI pipeline.


30-30: Updated Feature List Reflects NMake Removal
The features list now states "* Configure and CMake build system support*" rather than listing NMake support. This change accurately reflects the removal of NMake build projects, simplifying the supported build systems in the documentation as intended by the PR.

🪧 Tips

Chat

There are 3 ways to chat with CodeRabbit:

  • Review comments: Directly reply to a review comment made by CodeRabbit. Example:
    • I pushed a fix in commit <commit_id>, please review it.
    • Generate unit testing code for this file.
    • Open a follow-up GitHub issue for this discussion.
  • Files and specific lines of code (under the "Files changed" tab): Tag @coderabbitai in a new review comment at the desired location with your query. Examples:
    • @coderabbitai generate unit testing code for this file.
    • @coderabbitai modularize this function.
  • PR comments: Tag @coderabbitai in a new PR comment to ask questions about the PR branch. For the best results, please provide a very specific query, as very limited context is provided in this mode. Examples:
    • @coderabbitai gather interesting stats about this repository and render them as a table. Additionally, render a pie chart showing the language distribution in the codebase.
    • @coderabbitai read src/utils.ts and generate unit testing code.
    • @coderabbitai read the files in the src/scheduler package and generate a class diagram using mermaid and a README in the markdown format.
    • @coderabbitai help me debug CodeRabbit configuration file.

Note: Be mindful of the bot's finite context window. It's strongly recommended to break down tasks such as reading entire modules into smaller chunks. For a focused discussion, use review comments to chat about specific files and their changes, instead of using the PR comments.

This gets rid of 7 CI checks so that is great, and on Windows which is slower.
