Hi.

I'd like to test locally whether a commit (https://github.com/dlang/dmd/pull/16400) fixes an issue (https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24440). The GitHub instructions in the PR tell to use Digger for a quick and easy check, but it fails to build on Windows with the following message:

<...>
std.file.FileException@std\file.d(454): <...>\work\repo\dmd\src\win32.mak: The system cannot find the file specified.
<...>

And yeah, there is no such file there. Only osmodel.mak and posix.mak of the relevant kind.

So, nowadays, is Digger supposed to work on Windows? It did, the last time I tried, but that was several years ago.

Ivan Kazmenko.

Yes it should work.

The make files for dmd should be gone.

So I don't know why its referring to them.
