Re: [PATCHv2] rev-parse: add --show-superproject-working-tree

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Looks more or less right but invoke "ls-files -z" and reading the \0
delimited output would be easier; otherwise you would have to worry
about c-unquoting the pathname when the submodule is bound at a path
with funny character (like a double-quote) in it.

Also, returning the exact string of the path from the API function is
absolutely the right thing. I however have to wonder if rev-parse need
to do the c-quoting unless it is told to show pathnames in its output
without quoting (perhaps with "-z")? Or are paths from "rev-parse"
(like "--git-dir", "--show-toplevel", etc.) already excempt from the
usual quoting rules---if so, doing puts() and nothing else is fine to
be consistent with the existing practice (in the longer term, I am
sure we would need to revisit so that scripts can handle paths with
funny characters sensibly, but that would be a different topic if
existing ones like "--git-dir" are already unsafe).

Sorry for top-posting (I am not on a terminal right now).
