As far as I can see, this would be the first usage of `od` in the test
suite. I'd actually like to reduce our dependency on Unix-y tools, not
increase it.
One thing we could do would be to imitate t4030, and introduce a shell
function that calls Perl, something like:
bin2hex () {
perl -e '
$/ = undef;
$_ = <>;
s/./sprintf("%02x ", ord($&))/ge;
print $_
'
}
But it is a thorn in my side for quite a few years already that we
_require_ Perl, even in NO_PERL builds.
So maybe a much better idea would be to introduce a small helper in
`t/helper/` that converts binary data on stdin to hex on stdout? Something
like this:
Yeah, lets add the hexdump helper.
Thanks
