Perhaps something like this on top of your patch squashed in? The eval magic lets the shell to split $strategy_opts back into individual words (e.g. "--subtree=My Project" is a single word), strip the leading "--", and then uses "rev-parse --sq-quote" again to turn them into "-X 'subtree=My Project'" (two words), which can be inserted into a string later to be eval'ed. git-rebase--interactive.sh | 18 +++++++++++------- 1 file changed, 11 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) diff --git a/git-rebase--interactive.sh b/git-rebase--interactive.sh index e558397..ae2da7a 100644 --- a/git-rebase--interactive.sh +++ b/git-rebase--interactive.sh @@ -83,8 +83,13 @@ rewritten_pending="$state_dir"/rewritten-pending strategy_args= if test -n "$do_merge" then - strategy_args="${strategy+--strategy=$strategy} - $(echo $strategy_opts | sed "s/'--\([^']*\)'/-X\1/g")" + strategy_args=${strategy:+--strategy=$strategy} + eval ' + for strategy_opt in '"$strategy_opts"' + do + strategy_args="$strategy_args -X$(git rev-parse --sq-quote "${strategy_opt#--}")" + done + ' fi GIT_CHERRY_PICK_HELP="$resolvemsg" @@ -246,7 +251,7 @@ pick_one () { test -d "$rewritten" && pick_one_preserving_merges "$@" && return - output git cherry-pick $strategy_args $empty_args $ff "$@" + output eval git cherry-pick "$strategy_args" $empty_args $ff "$@" } pick_one_preserving_merges () { @@ -347,9 +352,8 @@ pick_one_preserving_merges () { msg_content="$(commit_message $sha1)" # No point in merging the first parent, that's HEAD new_parents=${new_parents# $first_parent} - if ! do_with_author output \ - git merge --no-ff $strategy_args -m \ - "$msg_content" $new_parents + if ! do_with_author output eval \ + 'git merge --no-ff $strategy_args -m "$msg_content" $new_parents' then printf "%s\n" "$msg_content" > "$GIT_DIR"/MERGE_MSG die_with_patch $sha1 "Error redoing merge $sha1" @@ -357,7 +361,7 @@ pick_one_preserving_merges () { echo "$sha1 $(git rev-parse HEAD^0)" >> "$rewritten_list" ;; *) - output git cherry-pick $strategy_args "$@" || + output eval git cherry-pick "$strategy_args" "$@" || die_with_patch $sha1 "Could not pick $sha1" ;; esac -- 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
