Any text below the "-- " for the email signature gets treated as part of the signature, and many mail clients will trim it from the quoted text for a reply. Move it above the signature, so people can reply to it more easily. Add tests for the exact format of the email signature, and add tests to ensure the email signature appears last. (Patch by Junio Hamano; tests by Josh Triplett.) Signed-off-by: Josh Triplett <josh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- Does the above seem reasonable, for a patch that incorporates the proposed patch from Message-Id xmqqh99rpud4.fsf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx and adds tests? Alternatively, feel free to split this patch into two, the first with you as the author. I can confirm that the code change doesn't break any existing tests; only the new tests added here check for it. So a two-patch series wouldn't result in any breakage after the first patch. builtin/log.c | 4 ++-- t/t4014-format-patch.sh | 22 +++++++++++++++++----- 2 files changed, 19 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) diff --git a/builtin/log.c b/builtin/log.c index 92dc34d..d69d5e6 100644 --- a/builtin/log.c +++ b/builtin/log.c @@ -1042,7 +1042,6 @@ static void make_cover_letter(struct rev_info *rev, int use_stdout, diff_flush(&opts); fprintf(rev->diffopt.file, "\n"); - print_signature(rev->diffopt.file); } static const char *clean_message_id(const char *msg_id) @@ -1720,6 +1719,7 @@ int cmd_format_patch(int argc, const char **argv, const char *prefix) make_cover_letter(&rev, use_stdout, origin, nr, list, branch_name, quiet); print_bases(&bases, rev.diffopt.file); + print_signature(rev.diffopt.file); total++; start_number--; } @@ -1779,13 +1779,13 @@ int cmd_format_patch(int argc, const char **argv, const char *prefix) if (!use_stdout) rev.shown_one = 0; if (shown) { + print_bases(&bases, rev.diffopt.file); if (rev.mime_boundary) fprintf(rev.diffopt.file, "\n--%s%s--\n\n\n", mime_boundary_leader, rev.mime_boundary); else print_signature(rev.diffopt.file); - print_bases(&bases, rev.diffopt.file); } if (!use_stdout) fclose(rev.diffopt.file); diff --git a/t/t4014-format-patch.sh b/t/t4014-format-patch.sh index b0579dd..a4af275 100755 --- a/t/t4014-format-patch.sh +++ b/t/t4014-format-patch.sh @@ -754,9 +754,22 @@ test_expect_success 'format-patch --ignore-if-in-upstream HEAD' ' git format-patch --ignore-if-in-upstream HEAD ' +git_version="$(git --version | sed "s/.* //")" + +signature() { + printf "%s\n%s\n\n" "-- " "${1:-$git_version}" +} + +test_expect_success 'format-patch default signature' ' + git format-patch --stdout -1 | tail -n 3 >output && + signature >expect && + test_cmp expect output +' + test_expect_success 'format-patch --signature' ' - git format-patch --stdout --signature="my sig" -1 >output && - grep "my sig" output + git format-patch --stdout --signature="my sig" -1 | tail -n 3 >output && + signature "my sig" >expect && + test_cmp expect output ' test_expect_success 'format-patch with format.signature config' ' @@ -1502,12 +1515,11 @@ test_expect_success 'format-patch -o overrides format.outputDirectory' ' test_expect_success 'format-patch --base' ' git checkout side && - git format-patch --stdout --base=HEAD~3 -1 >patch && - grep "^base-commit:" patch >actual && - grep "^prerequisite-patch-id:" patch >>actual && + git format-patch --stdout --base=HEAD~3 -1 | tail -n 6 >actual && echo "base-commit: $(git rev-parse HEAD~3)" >expected && echo "prerequisite-patch-id: $(git show --patch HEAD~2 | git patch-id --stable | awk "{print \$1}")" >>expected && echo "prerequisite-patch-id: $(git show --patch HEAD~1 | git patch-id --stable | awk "{print \$1}")" >>expected && + signature >> expected && test_cmp expected actual ' base-commit: 6ebdac1bab966b720d776aa43ca188fe378b1f4b -- git-series 0.8.10
