[PATCH v2 0/1] Show an error if too-long paths are seen by git clean -dfx

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

 



This is particularly important on Windows, where PATH_MAX is very small
compared to Unix/Linux.

Changes since v1:

 * Matched the warning message style to existing ones,
 * Fixed test in multiple ways: * Avoiding touch in favor of : >.
    * Using test_config.
    * Using test_i18ngrep instead of grep to avoid localization problems.
    * Add helpful comments.
   
   
 * The commit message now talks about lstat() instead of stat().
 * The commit message also explains where that core.longpaths comes from.
