[PATCH] meson: sort C warning flags alphabetically
Posted by Daniel P. Berrangé 1 year, 5 months ago
When scanning the list of warning flags to see if one is present, it is
helpful if they are in alphabetical order. It is further helpful to
separate out the 'no-' prefixed warnings.

The diff looks horrendous, so look at the resulting meson.build to see
the benefit.
