From: Charles Bailey <cbailey32@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> git-difftool used to create a command list script containing $( ... ) and explicitly call "sh -c" with this list. Instead, allow mergetool --tool-help to take a mode parameter and call mergetool directly to invoke the show_tool_help function. This mode parameter is intented for use solely by difftool. Signed-off-by: Charles Bailey <cbailey32@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- Another issue for Solaris. Originally I had a fix for this that substituted "@SHELL_PATH@" even inside perl scripts but I felt that having an interface for show_tool_help was a little neater all round but I welcome alternative views. git-difftool.perl | 6 +----- git-mergetool.sh | 12 +++++++++++- 2 files changed, 12 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) diff --git a/git-difftool.perl b/git-difftool.perl index 18ca61e..598fcc2 100755 --- a/git-difftool.perl +++ b/git-difftool.perl @@ -47,13 +47,9 @@ sub find_worktree sub print_tool_help { - my $cmd = 'TOOL_MODE=diff'; - $cmd .= ' && .
