| Description |
|
Previously, we generated the SCons VariantDir directory name from the options. leading to huge paths. On some builders, this caused things to exceed system limits. As a workaround, we explicitly set a VARIANT_DIR Variable on the SCons invocation to override the auto generation. However, in All of the VARIANT_DIR= things in etc/evergreen.yml are therefore obsolete and can be removed. |

I think it is up to the build team to decide whether they care to make this minor simplification to the server evergreen YAML. |
