- On Cygwin support both UNIX and DOS style path-names
- git-compat-util: add generic find_last_dir_sep that respects is_dir_sep
Honestly I lost track of this one. How would we want to proceed on this
topic after 1.7.7?
Asking help from Windows folks.
I believe Hannes pointed out that there were some work left to be done
on it ("enable backslash processing in setup.c:prefix_filename()"),
and I didn't spot a new version after that. He also pointed out that
enabling backslash processing would cause you to lose the ability to
escape special characters, but it sounds to me like this is something
that simply "comes with the territory" of supporting win32-paths in a
POSIX-ish environment, and is already the governing convention in
Cygwin. But I'm not an expert on this topic; Cygwin is not something I
usually care much about.
Same here, not expert. I just can say that this at least fixes a real
problem and the patches (provided by Theo and I) are going in the right
direction. They may be some other issues about Windows backslash (my
experiences show that there is very entertaining issues with this!) but
I don't think we should hold those patches except if someone prove them
to be wrong.
Pascal.
