Although I was not sure [4], I decided to roll out v4, in the hope that the next reviewers will profit by the more polished commit messages and order. This series deals with strbuf_getline_lf() in certain codepaths: Those, where the input that is read, is/was trimmed before doing anything that could possibly expect a CR character. Those places can be assumed to be "text" input, where a CR never would be a meaningful control character. The purpose of this series is to document these places to have this property, by using strbuf_getline() instead of strbuf_getline_lf(). Also in some codepaths, the CR could be a leftover of an editor and is thus removed. Every codepath was examined, if after the change it is still necessary to have trimming or if the additional CRLF-removal suffices. The series is an idea out of [1], where Junio proposed to replace the calls to strbuf_getline_lf() because it 'would [be] a good way to document them as dealing with "text"'. Changes since v3 [3] (the changes to single patches are indicated below): * Commit messages refined * Order of patch 4 and 5 in v2 was switched. The interdiff only removes an empty line (I noticed, when changing the order of commits, that the splitting operation had no newline before this whole series, so I left it that way): diff --git a/builtin/notes.c b/builtin/notes.c index 660c0b7..715fade 100644 --- a/builtin/notes.c +++ b/builtin/notes.c @@ -296,7 +296,6 @@ static int notes_copy_from_stdin(int force, const char *rewrite_cmd) int err; string_list_split(&split, buf.buf, ' ', -1); - if (split.nr != 2) die(_("Malformed input line: '%s'."), buf.buf); if (get_sha1(split.items[0].string, from_obj)) -Moritz [1], idea: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/284104 [2], v2: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/285118/focus=286865 [3], v3: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/285118/focus=287747 [4] http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/285118/focus=287760 Moritz Neeb (7): quote: remove leading space in sq_dequote_step -- as in v2 bisect: read bisect paths with strbuf_getline() -- refined commit message clean: read user input with strbuf_getline() -- simplified commit message notes copy --stdin: read lines with strbuf_getline() -- switched with below notes copy --stdin: split lines with string_list_split() -- switched with above remote: read $GIT_DIR/branches/* with strbuf_getline() -- as in v3 wt-status: read rebase todolist with strbuf_getline() -- as in v2 bisect.c | 5 ++--- builtin/clean.c | 6 +++--- builtin/notes.c | 22 ++++++++++------------ quote.c | 2 ++ remote.c | 2 +- wt-status.c | 3 +-- 6 files changed, 19 insertions(+), 21 deletions(-) -- 2.4.3 -- 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
