[PATCH] diffcore-pickaxe: make error messages more consistent

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

 



Currently, diffcore-pickaxe reports two distinct errors for the same
user error:

    $ git log --pickaxe-regex -S'\1'
    fatal: invalid pickaxe regex: Invalid back reference

    $ git log -G'\1' # --pickaxe-regex is implied
    fatal: invalid log-grep regex: Invalid back reference

Since the error has nothing to do with "log-grep", change the -G error
message to match the -S error message.

 Sorry I couldn't do more.  diffcore-pickaxe.c isn't at all easy to
 hack on, because there are so few tests guarding it.
