[PATCH 4/9] autoconf: Check for timer_t

From
Jacob Keller <jacob.e.keller@intel.com>
Date
Aug 29, 2014, 16:42 UTC
Message-ID
<1409330561-11806-4-git-send-email-jacob.e.keller@intel.com>

From: Jonas 'Sortie' Termansen <sortie@maxsi.org>
This type will be used in a following commit.

This type was not previously used by git. This can cause trouble for people on systems without timer_t if they only rely on config.mak.uname. They will need to set NO_TIMER_T manually.
