What? No need to apologize! It's just a small script I launch once or twice a week. It clones the github repos and builds everything. I just type `bash regenerate_dmd.sh` and wait a few minutes while GCC compiles happily.

Is this something taken from the DWiki? If not, it might be a good idea to amend the current Posix build docs and maybe add a link to your script: http://wiki.dlang.org/Building_DMD

I use something similar on win32 where I can build DMD-git very quickly.

I just use the dlang-workspace script that was posted some weeks ago, wrapped in another script to pull the latest dlang-workspace, should it ever change. It's all hardcoded, because I'm just discovering bash scripts. So, nothing that should be on a wiki :)

The dlang-workspace/posix/gen.sh script itself, which does all the hard work, could maybe be posted. But I'm not its author...
