I think you mis-read what I said. I first wondered why you did not say "return unless -d _" and wrote (seemingly more inefficient) "return unless -d $_". The comment is to clarify why '$' is needed. In other words, after this setup: $ rm -fr d dl $ mkdir d $ ln -s d dl you do not see an output from this: $ perl -e 'lstat "dl"; print "is-dir\n" if -d _;' but you do from this: $ perl -e 'lstat "dl"; print "is-dir\n" if -d "dl";' - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
