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' ${_f} done Signed-off-by: Elia Pinto <gitter.spiros@xxxxxxxxx> --- t/t4013-diff-various.sh | 6 +++--- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/t/t4013-diff-various.sh b/t/t4013-diff-various.sh index e77c09c..805b055 100755 --- a/t/t4013-diff-various.sh +++ b/t/t4013-diff-various.sh @@ -107,14 +107,14 @@ test_expect_success setup ' +*++ [initial] Initial EOF -V=`git version | sed -e 's/^git version //' -e 's/\./\\./g'` +V=$(git version | sed -e 's/^git version //' -e 's/\./\\./g') while read cmd do case "$cmd" in '' | '#'*) continue ;; esac - test=`echo "$cmd" | sed -e 's|[/ ][/ ]*|_|g'` - pfx=`printf "%04d" $test_count` + test=$(echo "$cmd" | sed -e 's|[/ ][/ ]*|_|g') + pfx=$(printf "%04d" $test_count) expect="$TEST_DIRECTORY/t4013/diff.$test" actual="$pfx-diff.$test" -- 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
