[PATCH v2] Remove useless uses of cat, and replace with filename arguments or redirection

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

 



Replace all uses of cat that do nothing other than read a single file.  In the
case of git-quilt-import, this occurs once per patch.

This revised version fixes a bug caught by Stephen Rothwell: the output of wc
-l changes when it has a filename on the command line.  The same bug occurred
in one other place as well.
