[PATCH] daemon: Skip unknown "extra arg" information

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



If we don't recognize an extra arg supplied hidden behind the
command, we should skip it and look at the next extra arg, in
case we recognize the next one.

For example, we currently don't recognize the "user=" extra arg,
but we should still be able to start this connection anyway:

 perl -e '
   $s="git-upload-pack /.git\0user=me\0host=localhost\0";
   printf "%4.4x%s",4+length $s,$s
 ' | ./git-daemon --inetd --base-path=`pwd` --export-all

 This should go in maint.
