I have ran configure on a software project a long time ago and have forgotten which command line arguments I had used at the time. Since then the configure script changed and, so now I want to rerun configure with the same arguments to update the Makefile.
I have the old Makefile and configure script as well as the old sources. The history file for my CLI doesn't have it anymore.
How can I recover which command line arguments were used when I originally ran configure?
You can find the arguments used by your last configure
call in config.log
and config.status
.
