Revisit `target remote` #1149

Open hugsy opened 2 weeks ago

hugsy commented 2 weeks ago

A lot has changed since first introducing gef-remote to mitigate the many limitations of target remote. In addition this command has created countless issues/PRs because users were using target remote (when they should've used gef-remote).

Since the upgrade to a baseline of GDB 10 + Python 3.10, we can revisit target remote and probably (finally) deprecate gef-remote, mostly through pre and post hooks.
