When you wrote this: CCS=`perl -e 'local $/=undef; open FILE, $ENV{'PATCHTMP'};... which one of the following did you mean to feed Perl? (1) open FILE, $ENV{'PATCHTMP'}; (2) open FILE, $ENV{PATCHTMP}; The patch text makes it look as if you wanted to do (1), but what is fed to perl is (2), as Johannes points out. Saying: CCS=`perl -e 'local $/=undef; open FILE, $ENV{PATCHTMP};... would have been more natural if you really meant to do (2), don't you think? So what you wrote is at least misleading. But I think I agree with Johannes's rewrite of the loop, so this may be a moot point. -- 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
