From: Luben Tuikov Date: Thu, 28 Sep 2006 21:15:59 GMT Subject: gitweb: using quotemeta Message-ID: <20060928211600.97412.qmail@web31808.mail.mud.yahoo.com> Commit ab41dfbfd4f3f9fedac71550027e9813b11abe3d introduces the use of quotemeta to quote the $filename of the snapshot. The commit message explains: Just in case filename contains end of line character. But quotemeta quotes any characters not matching /A-Za-z_0-9/. Which means that we get strings like this: linux\-2\.6\.git\-5c2d97cb31fb77981797fec46230ca005b865799\.tar\.gz Is this the desired behavior? FWIW, the backslash character is not part of of the name, but ended up when the snapshot was written to the filesystem. Thanks, Luben
