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' ${_f} done Signed-off-by: Elia Pinto <gitter.spiros@xxxxxxxxx> --- t/t7003-filter-branch.sh | 6 +++--- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/t/t7003-filter-branch.sh b/t/t7003-filter-branch.sh index 9496736..87459a5 100755 --- a/t/t7003-filter-branch.sh +++ b/t/t7003-filter-branch.sh @@ -362,7 +362,7 @@ test_expect_success 'setup submodule' ' git branch original HEAD ' -orig_head=`git show-ref --hash --head HEAD` +orig_head=$(git show-ref --hash --head HEAD) test_expect_success 'rewrite submodule with another content' ' git filter-branch --tree-filter "test -d submod && { @@ -371,7 +371,7 @@ test_expect_success 'rewrite submodule with another content' ' mkdir submod && : > submod/file } || :" HEAD && - test $orig_head != `git show-ref --hash --head HEAD` + test $orig_head != $(git show-ref --hash --head HEAD) ' test_expect_success 'replace submodule revision' ' @@ -380,7 +380,7 @@ test_expect_success 'replace submodule revision' ' "if git ls-files --error-unmatch -- submod > /dev/null 2>&1 then git update-index --cacheinfo 160000 0123456789012345678901234567890123456789 submod fi" HEAD && - test $orig_head != `git show-ref --hash --head HEAD` + test $orig_head != $(git show-ref --hash --head HEAD) ' test_done -- 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
