High Level Overview of Change
This change explicitly specifies
LANG=C
in the levelization script, which causes it to use plain ASCII ordering, and should cause the levelization results to be consistent across environments.Context of Change
This is a follow up to the physical redesign PR #4997. The merge / migration instructions in that PR note:
The cause of this inconsistency is not the version of
sort
, but the language settings of the shell, which varies depending on local configuration.Type of Change
.gitignore
, formatting, dropping support for older tooling)Before / After
Before:
On some machines, running
./Builds/levelization/levelization.sh
will change the order of the results inordering.txt
.After:
Running that script anywhere will give consistent results. Run against an unmodified
develop
branch, it should result in no changes.
