[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #57044] Use gnulib without hg subrepo and `bootstrap` with proper revision control

[Mike Miller]

Follow-up Comment #27, bug #57044 (project octave):

Kai - when GNULIB_REVISION is added to bootstrap.conf, is there any way for me
to run bootstrap and keep gnulib at a different revision? For example, I now
typically keep a separate gnulib repository on the master branch and run
'./bootstrap --gnulib-srcdir=../../gnulib'. Is there any way to override the
checkout or will I have to keep a local edit to bootstrap.conf just to keep my
gnulib on master? I hope that this change can also support that workflow.
Thanks.
