commit faa0098ac6b196375b00c48528a91ee553313e8d
Author: Bernhard M. Wiedemann <bwiedemann@suse.de>
Date: Tue Sep 5 13:16:08 2017 +0200
Sort glob file lists
to make builds more reproducible by default.
See https://reproducible-builds.org/ for why this is good.
commit b9f831b8 added GLOB_NOSORT for no apparent reason,
possibly by mistake.
man 3 glob is very specific that the only reason to add this flag is
to save processing time, but since ordering actually matters in a
variety of cases, (e.g. when linking .o files into a binary,
or appending snippets to a collection)
we want the list sorted.
