With 0.160, I upgraded to the new development tools via Cmder, then wrote some .bat files that kick off every time I launch it which is supposed to update itself and MAME source via git.
I launched it this afternoon and the MAME Build Tools did update itself, but the MAME source did not. As a sanity test, I compiled the source that I had in case it did update without me noticing, put that into CMP, and scanned it against my library. So far, no missing ROMs, so I must have recompiled the 0.160 source.
Wasn't this a way for me to get the latest source via git without me having to blow it up and redownload the source again every time? Or is it still supposed to work that way and I missed something?

EDIT: Well, I found out that if I deleted the "mame" directory and redid the "git clone" command, I did get the latest version of the code. Not sure why "git pull" didn't update it, but oh well.
So I modified my batch files on launch of Cmder to delete "mame" and do a fresh "git clone" each time, then start the compile. I'll reply again if I have problems with compiling, but if not everything went well.
