From: Elia Pinto Date: Tue, 25 Mar 2014 17:22:54 GMT Subject: [PATCH v2 033/142] t3403-rebase-skip.sh: use the $( ... ) construct for command substitution Message-ID: <1395768283-31135-34-git-send-email-gitter.spiros@gmail.com> In-Reply-To: <1395768283-31135-1-git-send-email-gitter.spiros@gmail.com> The Git CodingGuidelines prefer the $( ... ) construct for command substitution instead of using the back-quotes, or grave accents (`..`). The backquoted form is the historical 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. Because of this the POSIX shell adopted the $(…) feature from the Korn shell. The patch was generated by the simple script for _f in $(find . -name "*.sh") do   sed -i 's@`\(.*\)`@$(\1)@g' ${_f} done Signed-off-by: Elia Pinto --- t/t3403-rebase-skip.sh | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/t/t3403-rebase-skip.sh b/t/t3403-rebase-skip.sh index 3968020..1f5122b 100755 --- a/t/t3403-rebase-skip.sh +++ b/t/t3403-rebase-skip.sh @@ -67,7 +67,7 @@ test_expect_success 'rebase --skip with --merge' ' ' test_expect_success 'merge and reference trees equal' ' - test -z "`git diff-tree skip-merge skip-reference`" + test -z "$(git diff-tree skip-merge skip-reference)" ' test_expect_success 'moved back to branch correctly' ' -- 1.7.10.4
