In tools menu, boards belonging to each platform are grouped together.
The title of the groups is the board package name. When switching
between versions, mentioning the version number in package name helps
identify the installed version.
Rename board group from "ESP8266 Modules" to "ESP8266 Boards", to be
more similar to other platforms, and to reflect the fact that most
entries included are boards, not modules.
As an extra change, when building the boards manager package, set
version number in platform.txt based on git tag name. This saves one
step when creating the release — don't need to update platform.txt
twice.
Closes https://github.com/esp8266/Arduino/issues/5007.
* provide full version descriptor, displayed in debug mode
* unix: shows core version like under windows when git is unavailable
* store strings in progmem
* version string honours NDEBUG
* add ARDUINO_ESP8266_GIT_DESC
restore ARDUINO_ESP8266_GIT_VER
restore global variable "core_version"
don't print full version on setDebugOutput(true)
set platform.txt version to 2.4.1-pre
hide irrelevant boot version
fix typo
* lwip2: fix disconnection/reconnection issue
also:
improve version string
remove useless message
* lwip2: bump tag before 2.4.1
* lwip2: improve netif flags management on git side
* full-version string: remove useless NDEBUG in separate source file
* do not automatically enable sdk messages along with core messages
* automatically reenable sdk messages along with core messages *before* setup not after
* check serial port when showing version-string + move sdk messages enabler in hardware serial
* + license header
* updated and tested windows commands in platform.txt (without git)
* updated and tested windows commands in platform.txt (without git)
* update package builder accordingly
Because git ls-files was run in package directory, it didn't list tools directories, so these were not excluded from rsync, causing package to include local copy of tools. Fixed by changing into root directory before doing anything.
