Subject: t0025 weird behaviour on NonStop ksh/bash
Date: Fri, 8 May 2015 19:17:28 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <003101d089e5$27347610$759d6230$@nexbridge.com> (raw)
Ok, I'm sure that this is not a git problem, but there is an assumption
about echo behaviour in t0025 that may not be correct. When executed from a
shell function on the HP NonStop platform under ksh and bash, the LFonly
file annoyingly contains cr-lf not just lf. This causes sub-test 4 to fail.
Weirdly, this does not happen from an interactive shell. My proposed
solution, in t0025-crlf-auto.sh, to this is to make it explicit that bad
behaviour on the part of echo should be dealt with severely, as in:
for w in Hello world how are you; do echo $w; done | tr -d '\r'
>LFonly
instead of
for w in Hello world how are you; do echo $w; done >LFonly
which is a no-op on platforms that behave themselves in this situation. Is
this the proper approach?
Cheers,
Randall
