Florian Müllner bf9b9838c2 main: Pass script on CLI instead of via environment
Environment variables aren't the best option to pass parameters
to a process (wouldn't it be "fun" if SHELL_PERF_MODULE appeared
in a regular user session?).

Instead, use a (hidden) --automation-script command line flag to
specify a script file that should be used to drive an automated
session.

As a side effect, the script no longer has to be relative to the
main module itself, so it will be possible to run scripts that
aren't bundled with the shell sources.

GNOME Shell

GNOME Shell provides core user interface functions for the GNOME desktop, like switching to windows and launching applications. GNOME Shell takes advantage of the capabilities of modern graphics hardware and introduces innovative user interface concepts to provide a visually attractive and easy to use experience.

For more information about GNOME Shell, including instructions on how to build GNOME Shell from source and how to get involved with the project, see the project wiki.

Bugs should be reported to the GNOME bug tracking system. Please refer to the Schedule wiki page to see the supported versions.

Contributing

To contribute, open merge requests at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell.

Commit messages should follow the GNOME commit message guidelines. If a merge request fixes an existing issue, it is good practice to append the full issue URL to each commit message. Try to always prefix commit subjects with a relevant topic, such as panel: or status/network:, and it's always better to write too much in the commit message body than too little.

Default branch

The default development branch is main. If you still have a local checkout under the old name, use:

git checkout master
git branch -m master main
git fetch
git branch --unset-upstream
git branch -u origin/main
git symbolic-ref refs/remotes/origin/HEAD refs/remotes/origin/main
