From: Ross Kabus <rkabus@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 5 Sep 2017 13:54:52 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] commit-tree: don't append a newline with -F This change makes it such that commit-tree -F never appends a newline character to the supplied commit message (either from file or stdin). Previously, commit-tree -F would always append a newline character to the text brought in from file or stdin. This has caused confusion in a number of ways: - This is a plumbing command and it is generally expected not to do text cleanup or other niceties. - stdin piping with "-F -" appends a newline but stdin piping without -F does not append a newline (inconsistent). - git-commit has the --cleanup=verbatim option that prevents appending a newline with its -F argument. There is no verbatim counterpart to commit-tree -F (inconsistent). --- builtin/commit-tree.c | 1 - 1 file changed, 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/builtin/commit-tree.c b/builtin/commit-tree.c index 19e898fa4..2177251e2 100644 --- a/builtin/commit-tree.c +++ b/builtin/commit-tree.c @@ -102,7 +102,6 @@ int cmd_commit_tree(int argc, const char **argv, const char *prefix) if (fd && close(fd)) die_errno("git commit-tree: failed to close '%s'", argv[i]); - strbuf_complete_line(&buffer); continue; } -- 2.13.1.windows.2
