This patch still does not allow pathnames with characters that do need C-quote, but the code didn't handle them before, so it is not making things worse. The correct approach to solve the problem for all pathnames may be to use "ls-files -z" and tell the Perl script that reads its output to read NUL separated records by using $/ = "\0". > Solution-suggested-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@xxxxxxxxx> > Signed-off-by: Fredrik Gustafsson <iveqy@xxxxxxxxx> > --- > git-submodule.sh | 2 +- > t/t7400-submodule-basic.sh | 12 ++++++++++++ > 2 files changed, 13 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) > > diff --git a/git-submodule.sh b/git-submodule.sh > index 79bfaac..bad051e 100755 > --- a/git-submodule.sh > +++ b/git-submodule.sh > @@ -113,7 +113,7 @@ resolve_relative_url () > module_list() > { > ( > - git ls-files --error-unmatch --stage -- "$@" || > + git -c core.quotepath=false ls-files --error-unmatch --stage -- "$@" || > echo "unmatched pathspec exists" > ) | > perl -e ' > diff --git a/t/t7400-submodule-basic.sh b/t/t7400-submodule-basic.sh > index ff26535..d5743ee 100755 > --- a/t/t7400-submodule-basic.sh > +++ b/t/t7400-submodule-basic.sh > @@ -868,4 +868,16 @@ test_expect_success 'submodule deinit fails when submodule has a .git directory > test -n "$(git config --get-regexp "submodule\.example\.")" > ' > > +test_expect_success 'submodule with strange name works "å äö"' ' > + mkdir "å äö" && > + ( > + cd "å äö" && > + git init && > + touch sub > + git add sub > + git commit -m "init sub" > + ) > + git submodule add "/å äö" && > + test -n "$(git submodule | grep "å äö")" > +' > test_done -- 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
