Looks like my cover letter was dropped and placing each Cc: on a separate line only sends to the last one. Let’s try again. Here's my cover letter and the full relevant list from contrib/contacts is now CC'd: > fast-import has subtle differences in how it parses file paths between each > occurrence of <path> in the grammar. Many errors were suppressed or not checked, > which could lead to silent data corruption. A particularly bad case was when a > front-end sent escapes that Git doesn't recognize (e.g., hex escapes are not > supported), it would be treated as literal bytes instead of a quoted string. > > Bring path parsing into line with the documented behavior and improve > documentation to fill in missing details. > > This patch series is patterned after 06454cb9a3 (fast-import: tighten parsing of > datarefs, 2012-04-07), which did similar fixes across the grammar, but for > marks. > > This is my first contribution to Git, so please let me know if there's something > I've missed. I'm working on a tool for advanced repo transformations (like a > union of filter-repo and Reposurgeon workflows), so I've been living in > fast-import code and I have more parsing fixes planned.
