Change Description
This MR should allow us to build Privacy Browser build.
It introduces the following changes:
- it allows us to customize
MOZ_APP_BASENAME
, which has direct effects on the output paths and filenames - it adds a few needed files for the Windows and macOS installers
- it adds the privacybrowser targets
- it adds the
torbrowser-
prefix to theMakefile
targets for generating updates - it adds
privacybrowser
to the.gitignore
(and adds backrelease
,alpha
andnightly
to guarantee compatibility with older builds and withmaint-12.0
) - it updates the needed documentation
So far, the builds work, but only if you use the single target. Group targets (such as desktop) don't work, but I cannot fix them on my own.
