That is a large string to hold in a variable for a potentially large series with lots of breakages. I didn't quite read the reasoning behind this change in the proposed log message. Under what condition do you expect the command to exit with non-zero status? $basecommit being a non-empty string but does not name a valid commit object or something, in which case shouldn't "git log --oneline $baseCommit.." or something simpler should suffice? > +if test $? -ne 0 > +then > + echo -n $gitLogOutput What is "-n" doing here? Why are you squashing run of spaces in the $gitLogOutput variable into a space by not "quoting" inside a dq-pair? > + exit 1 > +fi Looking for "--check" in $ git log --help tells me that the command exits with non-zero status if problems are found, so wouldn't that mean the cases with problems always exit early, bypassing the while loop with full of bash-ism that comes after this block? > problems=() > commit= > commitText= > @@ -58,7 +65,7 @@ do > echo "${dash} ${sha} ${etc}" > ;; > esac > -done <<< "$(git log --check --pretty=format:"---% h% s" "${baseCommit}"..)" > +done <<< "$gitLogOutput" > > if test ${#problems[*]} -gt 0 > then > @@ -67,7 +74,7 @@ then > goodParent=${baseCommit: 0:7} > fi > > - echo "A whitespace issue was found in onen of more of the commits." > + echo "A whitespace issue was found in one of more of the commits." > echo "Run the following command to resolve whitespace issues:" > echo "git rebase --whitespace=fix ${goodParent}"
