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' ${_f} done Signed-off-by: Elia Pinto <gitter.spiros@xxxxxxxxx> --- t/t3700-add.sh | 16 ++++++++-------- 1 file changed, 8 insertions(+), 8 deletions(-) diff --git a/t/t3700-add.sh b/t/t3700-add.sh index fe274e2..95eb234 100755 --- a/t/t3700-add.sh +++ b/t/t3700-add.sh @@ -25,7 +25,7 @@ test_expect_success \ echo foo >xfoo1 && chmod 755 xfoo1 && git add xfoo1 && - case "`git ls-files --stage xfoo1`" in + case "$(git ls-files --stage xfoo1)" in 100644" "*xfoo1) echo pass;; *) echo fail; git ls-files --stage xfoo1; (exit 1);; esac' @@ -33,7 +33,7 @@ test_expect_success \ test_expect_success 'git add: filemode=0 should not get confused by symlink' ' rm -f xfoo1 && test_ln_s_add foo xfoo1 && - case "`git ls-files --stage xfoo1`" in + case "$(git ls-files --stage xfoo1)" in 120000" "*xfoo1) echo pass;; *) echo fail; git ls-files --stage xfoo1; (exit 1);; esac @@ -45,7 +45,7 @@ test_expect_success \ echo foo >xfoo2 && chmod 755 xfoo2 && git update-index --add xfoo2 && - case "`git ls-files --stage xfoo2`" in + case "$(git ls-files --stage xfoo2)" in 100644" "*xfoo2) echo pass;; *) echo fail; git ls-files --stage xfoo2; (exit 1);; esac' @@ -53,7 +53,7 @@ test_expect_success \ test_expect_success 'git add: filemode=0 should not get confused by symlink' ' rm -f xfoo2 && test_ln_s_add foo xfoo2 && - case "`git ls-files --stage xfoo2`" in + case "$(git ls-files --stage xfoo2)" in 120000" "*xfoo2) echo pass;; *) echo fail; git ls-files --stage xfoo2; (exit 1);; esac @@ -63,7 +63,7 @@ test_expect_success \ 'git update-index --add: Test that executable bit is not used...' \ 'git config core.filemode 0 && test_ln_s_add xfoo2 xfoo3 && # runs git update-index --add - case "`git ls-files --stage xfoo3`" in + case "$(git ls-files --stage xfoo3)" in 120000" "*xfoo3) echo pass;; *) echo fail; git ls-files --stage xfoo3; (exit 1);; esac' @@ -166,14 +166,14 @@ test_expect_success 'git add with filemode=0, symlinks=0 prefers stage 2 over st test_expect_success 'git add --refresh' ' >foo && git add foo && git commit -a -m "commit all" && - test -z "`git diff-index HEAD -- foo`" && + test -z "$(git diff-index HEAD -- foo)" && git read-tree HEAD && - case "`git diff-index HEAD -- foo`" in + case "$(git diff-index HEAD -- foo)" in :100644" "*"M foo") echo pass;; *) echo fail; (exit 1);; esac && git add --refresh -- foo && - test -z "`git diff-index HEAD -- foo`" + test -z "$(git diff-index HEAD -- foo)" ' test_expect_success 'git add --refresh with pathspec' ' -- 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
