There are quite a few $((arithmetic)) already in our shell code, so I was initially a bit surprised. However, upon closer inspection, this particular use is not kosher at all. The portable ones we already have in the code say things like: msgnum=$(($msgnum+1)) The one in filter-branch that bit you does not dereference 'i'. I am reasonably sure if you fix it to read: i=$(( $i+1 )) dash would grok it. - 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
