2015-12-27t/t1511-rev-parse-caret.sh: use the $( ... ) construct for command substitutionLibravatar Elia Pinto1-2/+2
The Git CodingGuidelines prefer the $(...) construct for command substitution instead of using the backquotes `...`. The backquoted form is the traditional method for command substitution, and is supported by POSIX. However, all but the simplest uses become complicated quickly. In particular, embedded command substitutions and/or the use of double quotes require careful escaping with the backslash character. The patch was generated by: for _f in $(find . -name "*.sh") do perl -i -pe 'BEGIN{undef $/;} s/`(.+?)`/\$(\1)/smg' "${_f}" done and then carefully proof-read.

2013-09-03peel_onion(): add support for <rev>^{tag}Libravatar Richard Hansen1-0/+7
Complete the <rev>^{<type>} family of object descriptors by having <rev>^{tag} dereference <rev> until a tag object is found (or fail if unable). At first glance this may not seem very useful, as commits, trees, and blobs cannot be peeled to a tag, and a tag would just peel to itself. However, this can be used to ensure that <rev> names a tag object: $ git rev-parse --verify v1.8.4^{tag} 04f013dc38d7512eadb915eba22efc414f18b869 $ git rev-parse --verify master^{tag} error: master^{tag}: expected tag type, but the object dereferences to tree type fatal: Needed a single revision Users can already ensure that <rev> is a tag object by checking the output of 'git cat-file -t <rev>', but: * users may expect <rev>^{tag} to exist given that <rev>^{commit}, <rev>^{tree}, and <rev>^{blob} all exist * this syntax is more convenient/natural in some circumstances Signed-off-by: Richard Hansen <rhansen@bbn.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2011-12-08test: fix '&&' chainingLibravatar Ramkumar Ramachandra1-1/+1
Breaks in a test assertion's && chain can potentially hide failures from earlier commands in the chain by adding " &&" at the end of line to the commands that need them.

2010-12-14get_sha1: support $commit^{/regex} syntaxLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-0/+73
This works like ":/regex" syntax that finds a recently created commit starting from all refs, but limits the discovery to those reachable from the named commit. Signed-off-by: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <pclouds@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
