The Git CodingGuidelines prefer the $( ... ) construct for command substitution instead of using the back-quotes, or grave accents (`..`). The backquoted form is the historical method for command substitution, and is supported by POSIX. However, all but the simplest uses become complicated quickly. In particular, embedded command substitutions and/or the use of double quotes require careful escaping with the backslash character. Because of this the POSIX shell adopted the $(…) feature from the Korn shell. The patch was generated by the simple script for _f in $(find . -name "*.sh") do sed -i 's@`\(.*\)`@$(\1)@g' ${_f} done Signed-off-by: Elia Pinto <gitter.spiros@xxxxxxxxx> --- t/t5700-clone-reference.sh | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/t/t5700-clone-reference.sh b/t/t5700-clone-reference.sh index 6537911..571aee4 100755 --- a/t/t5700-clone-reference.sh +++ b/t/t5700-clone-reference.sh @@ -6,7 +6,7 @@ test_description='test clone --reference' . ./test-lib.sh -base_dir=`pwd` +base_dir=$(pwd) U=$base_dir/UPLOAD_LOG -- 1.7.10.4 -- 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
