So removing the # export-ok file from repos where needed is done in perl. # On the other hand, perls requires a bit more *code* to even create an empty # file. Shell can do it with just "> file", and it doesn't fork for this. So # that part is handled in shell. # You'll also see that the perl part is taking what it needs from the input # and passing the rest on, so the shell part doesn't have to do any grepping, # which would be a horrible slowdown. # $F and the rest is the magic of perl's flags (man perlrun).
