From 1a4a80fc249a0aab792e59eb301982ef2da63222 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stefano Lattarini Date: Mon, 23 Dec 2013 18:12:20 +0100 Subject: maintainer: am-ft: add option to cater to clock skews * maintainer/am-ft: Add option '-S', giving a number of seconds to sleep after copying the tarball to the remote system and before unpacking, building and testing it. This is to cater to situations where the clock of the remote system is skewed (in the past) w.r.t. the clock the local system the tarball has been built on.
