From: Libor Pechacek Date: Sat, 08 Jan 2011 14:46:44 GMT Subject: git-config does not check validity of variable names Message-ID: <20110108144644.GA11019@localhost.suse.cz> 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? Libor -- Libor Pechacek SUSE L3 Team, Prague
