Subject: [PATCH 5/6] am: Fix launching of pager
Date: Sun, 14 Feb 2010 06:07:31 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100214120731.GE3499@progeny.tock> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20100214115430.GA1849@progeny.tock>

The git_pager() function used in git am has some problems:

 - It does not check if stdout is a tty, so it always paginates.

 - If $GIT_PAGER uses any environment variables, they are being
   ignored, since it does not run $GIT_PAGER through eval.

Fix them.  While at it, move the definition of git_pager() to
git-sh-setup so authors of other commands are not tempted to
reimplement it with the same mistakes.

If GIT_PAGER is set to the empty string, pagination is disabled.  This
is different from the treatment of GIT_EDITOR by git_editor(), but
consistency with the use of GIT_PAGER by git builtins is more
important.
