Subproject dist scripts will only be executed +when running `meson dist --include-subprojects`. `MESON_PROJECT_SOURCE_ROOT`, +`MESON_PROJECT_BUILD_ROOT` and `MESON_PROJECT_DIST_ROOT` environment variables +are set when dist scripts are run. They are identical to `MESON_SOURCE_ROOT`, +`MESON_BUILD_ROOT` and `MESON_DIST_ROOT` for main project scripts, but for +subproject scripts they have the path to the root of the subproject appended, +usually `subprojects/<subproject-name>`. + +Note that existing dist scripts likely need to be modified to use those new +environment variables instead of `MESON_DIST_ROOT` to work properly when used +from a subproject. |
