At this point, 'literally' is unconditionally false (0). It's value won't (potentially) change until the options are processed, which doesn't happen until parse_options() is invoked _after_ this conditional. > usage_with_options(cat_file_usage, options); > > argc = parse_options(argc, argv, prefix, options, cat_file_usage, 0); > @@ -405,5 +431,10 @@ int cmd_cat_file(int argc, const char **argv, const char *prefix) > if (batch.enabled) > return batch_objects(&batch); > > + if (literally && opt == 't') > + return cat_one_file_literally(opt, exp_type, obj_name); > + else if (literally) > + usage_with_options(cat_file_usage, options); > + > return cat_one_file(opt, exp_type, obj_name); > } > -- > 2.3.1.129.g11acff1.dirty -- 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
