Subject: git-config does not check validity of variable names
Date: Sat, 8 Jan 2011 15:46:44 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110108144644.GA11019@localhost.suse.cz> (raw)
Hello,
I've noticed that git-config accepts variable names in the form "a=b" for its
"get" operation. That means "git config a=b" does not write anything to its
output and exists with status 1.
According to the man page only alphanumeric characters and - are allowed in
variable names. Would it make sense to spit out an error message when the user
supplies an invalid variable name like the above?
