[PATCH v2 2/2] branch, for-each-ref: add option to omit empty lines

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

 



If the given format string expands to the empty string a newline is
still printed it. This makes using the output linewise more tedious. For
example, git update-ref --stdin does not accept empty lines.

Add options to branch and for-each-ref to not print these empty lines.
The default behavior remains the same.
