Subject: [RFC] New option -nh: disable loading ~/.gdbinit
Date: Thu, 20 Sep 2012 22:02:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <yjt2y5k42w19.fsf@ruffy2.mtv.corp.google.com> (raw)

Hi.
When running tests (not necessarily tests in gdb/testsuite!) with a
gdb with a non-trivial system.gdbinit,
it is useful to be able disable loading ~/.gdbinit.
system.gdbinit is still necessary, it provides necessary functionality.

One *could* run the tests with -nx -x /path/to/system.gdbinit,
but the path to system.gdbinit is not necessarily easy to obtain.

Instead, I'd like to add this option: -nh.

Sound ok?

[I'll submit a full patch with docs if approved.]

	New option -nh: inhibit loading of ~/.gdbinit.
	* main.c (captured_main): Recognize and process -nh.
