So you all made very good points, and I don't want to repeat them. Junio's analysis > Perhaps we would want to squash something like this to the test to avoid > "seq", using J6t's idea. The issue is that we do not write the end of > line for the long boundary (because it is hidden from us), keep reading > and rejecting bogus letters, and then the tip is written without > terminating the boundary line. So checking boundary line is not a very > useful test, but "fetch" and "list-heads" are. is of course also correct for the case where the overlong line is in a boundary commit. (The analysis about the accidentally-leading '-' is also correct and can create a boundary line where there was none, like in the perl case.) The patches in this round are: [1] new; following up on Peff's complaint that I should document strbuf_getwholeline_fd, I found that the strbuf_get*line documentation was also lacking. [2] previously (1/2), now with documentation added [3] new; Junio corrected me on the ': > file' spelling, which I added because the start of the test used it too. So let's just fix it outright to match the Git style all over. [4] previously (2/2), now incorporating a strbuf_release and the suggestions for the tests as sent by Junio. I upped the %0982 a bit as it felt *too* tailored for the old bug, and this way everyone can see immediately that it will exceed the 1024 char limit (without thinking about the length of a sha and accounting for \0 and \n).
