So, this is more like Even though bash allows locale-dependet characters in function names, only the allowed characters per the POSIX.1-2017 definition are implemented for simplicity. We can expect that this catches the vast majority of use-cases. > > Uses the default `IFS` characters to define words. We could do better than this, I think. At a minimum, the equal sign, single quote, double quote, parentheses, and braces should also delineate words. $(, ${, $((, ((, )), [[, ]], should be words. I would exclude single brackets because they could only occur in globs, IIRC, and they need not be broken into words at brackets. $var should be a single word, IMO. That said, this can be presented as a patch on top of this one. > > Adds testing functionality to verify non-matches by including the > literal string "non-match" somewhere in the test file.

While speaking of that: it is very refreshing to see negative tests! > > Signed-off-by: Victor Engmark <victor@xxxxxxxxxxxx> > --- When you write a commit message, please always answer the question WHY the change should be made. For example, the notice "use IFS characters" alone does not add value; that much can be seen in the patch text. How about: Since a word pattern has to be specified, but there is no easy way to request the default word pattern, use the standard IFS characters for a starter. A later patch can improve this. In general, a justification of why something should be added, should also be answered. But in the case of "bash pattern for userdiff" the answer is too obvious and trivial, that an exception is warranted. Please write the commit message in imperative mood. "Support" instead of "Supports", etc. > diff --git a/Documentation/gitattributes.txt b/Documentation/gitattributes.txt > index 2d0a03715b..8a15ff6bdf 100644 > --- a/Documentation/gitattributes.txt > +++ b/Documentation/gitattributes.txt > @@ -802,6 +802,8 @@ patterns are available: > > - `ada` suitable for source code in the Ada language. > > +- `bash` suitable for source code in the Bourne-Again SHell language.
