git interpret-trailers: behavior with input without trailing newline

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

 



Hi all,

I'm investigating a behavior with git interpret-trailers where when the input does not end with a newline, git appends the trailer directly without a newline; and on running the same command again it doesn't detect the previous trailer anymore. 

I've whipped up a quick PoC in form of a new test case in the existing test cases of git.

Appending the patch here (sorry if it does get corrupted from my editor, but I hope you get the gist of it).

diff --git a/t/t7513-interpret-trailers.sh b/t/t7513-interpret-trailers.sh

It doesn't feel like an expected behavior but if it is, please tell me.

Luca
