-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I'm trying to import a git log into a spreadsheet. I used a simple - --pretty=format: switch to select the fields I wanted and separate them with commas to generate a CSV file that can be imported. The message body, however, is presenting a problem. The first problem is that it contains newlines itself, which normally signal the start of a new record. It turns out that even when quoting the field, MS Excel still fails to import it properly ( good grief MS ), but openoffice calc does. The second problem is that the body itself may contain quotes. I can't figure out a good way to deal with these quotes. It seems that replacing them with a pair of quotes should make the CSV valid, but how can I replace only those quotes internal to the field without replacing the quotes that actually bracket it? Is it possible to have git log use a NULL terminator between records instead of a new line? Or is there a better way of going about this? -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.17 (MingW32) iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJU7NmpAAoJENRVrw2cjl5RWFEH/Re8o38zp+EqQxrOM7ZfypUy Ebaqf8Sa3dIs57iJINnNNsy6kTyPGCxPphdI5zbN5DVuduYKldZSMIeQ1S3sysRq SPH+E0KL1yxWEv8A0s5CKN/THvPHoUMpl0D7850LBrEmfQzyYNBE4NRBLHSPUL2w pbAaDeQQwmTigwF6J1AYdz3FlZZznVGzR6ST/Tios64G33wePzPOulF8QyXjpQJq R1QNRc9EmMz+FC1X/BwrPMX0e8YeTipjW+X/s6uMUXB6F9cln0VcNR5QOhDO1JDp avbdSwl7nQWRX244cKPfX+eujBgC8RnyrLyz74vSsn1vO8BHtSrLMQ5+1Lbymjo= =MTpF -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- 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
