[Note: cross-posted to the magit list to see if anyone else has this problem.] For a while now I had a problem when I try to do stash operations via magit -- for example, it shows this in the process buffer: $ git --no-pager stash apply stash@{2012-04-27 08:53:30 -0400} Too many revisions specified: stash@{2012-04-27 08:53:30 -0400} I tracked this down to this part of the script: REV=$(git rev-parse --no-flags --symbolic "$@") || exit 1 ... set -- $REV where $REV has one symbolic name but the name has spaces in it. (This was introduced two years ago, in ef76312.) Removing the --symbolic flag could solve this but it looks like it's needed for error reporting. Instead, I tweaked IFS so it's split correctly and added some quotations later in the script where $1 and $REV are used without quotes. (I also moved the "REV=..." line next to the "set -- $REV", since the chunk of code between them isn't using $REV.) The following is the diff -- if it looks right I can send a properly formatted patch. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- diff --git a/git-stash.sh b/git-stash.sh index 4e2c7f8..10a264b 100755 --- a/git-stash.sh +++ b/git-stash.sh @@ -33,6 +33,8 @@ else reset_color= fi +NEWLINE=" +" no_changes () { git diff-index --quiet --cached HEAD --ignore-submodules -- && git diff-files --quiet --ignore-submodules && @@ -327,8 +329,6 @@ parse_flags_and_rev() i_tree= u_tree= - REV=$(git rev-parse --no-flags --symbolic "$@") || exit 1 - FLAGS= for opt do @@ -345,7 +345,9 @@ parse_flags_and_rev() esac done - set -- $REV + REV=$(git rev-parse --no-flags --symbolic "$@") || exit 1 + + OIFS="$IFS"; IFS="$NEWLINE"; set -- $REV; IFS="$OIFS" case $# in 0) @@ -360,13 +362,13 @@ parse_flags_and_rev() ;; esac - REV=$(git rev-parse --quiet --symbolic --verify $1 2>/dev/null) || { + REV=$(git rev-parse --quiet --symbolic --verify "$1" 2>/dev/null) || { reference="$1" die "$(eval_gettext "\$reference is not valid reference")" } - i_commit=$(git rev-parse --quiet --verify $REV^2 2>/dev/null) && - set -- $(git rev-parse $REV $REV^1 $REV: $REV^1: $REV^2: 2>/dev/null) && + i_commit=$(git rev-parse --quiet --verify "$REV^2" 2>/dev/null) && + set -- $(git rev-parse "$REV" "$REV^1" "$REV:" "$REV^1:" "$REV^2:" 2>/dev/null) && s=$1 && w_commit=$1 && b_commit=$2 && @@ -377,8 +379,8 @@ parse_flags_and_rev() test "$ref_stash" = "$(git rev-parse --symbolic-full-name "${REV%@*}")" && IS_STASH_REF=t - u_commit=$(git rev-parse --quiet --verify $REV^3 2>/dev/null) && - u_tree=$(git rev-parse $REV^3: 2>/dev/null) + u_commit=$(git rev-parse --quiet --verify "$REV^3" 2>/dev/null) && + u_tree=$(git rev-parse "$REV^3:" 2>/dev/null) } is_stash_like() ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- ((lambda (x) (x x)) (lambda (x) (x x))) Eli Barzilay: http://barzilay.org/ Maze is Life! -- 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
