From: Sebastian Schuberth Date: Wed, 11 Jan 2012 09:21:10 GMT Subject: [PATCH 2/2] git-cvsexportcommit: Fix calling Perl's rel2abs() on MSYS Message-ID: <4F0D5486.7020707@gmail.com> In-Reply-To: <4F0D5367.1000506@gmail.com> Due to MSYS path mangling GIT_DIR contains a Windows-style path when checked inside a Perl script even if GIT_DIR was previously set to an MSYS-style path in a shell script. So explicitly convert to an MSYS-style path before calling Perl's rel2abs() to make it work. This fix was inspired by a very similar patch in WebKit: http://trac.webkit.org/changeset/76255/trunk/Tools/Scripts/commit-log-editor Signed-off-by: Sebastian Schuberth --- git-cvsexportcommit.perl | 7 +++++++ 1 files changed, 7 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) diff --git a/git-cvsexportcommit.perl b/git-cvsexportcommit.perl index 39a426e..e6bf252 100755 --- a/git-cvsexportcommit.perl +++ b/git-cvsexportcommit.perl @@ -30,6 +30,13 @@ if ($opt_w || $opt_W) { chomp($gd); $ENV{GIT_DIR} = $gd; } + + # On MSYS, convert a Windows-style path to an MSYS-style path + # so that rel2abs() below works correctly. + if ($^O eq 'msys') { + $ENV{GIT_DIR} =~ s#^([[:alpha:]]):/#/$1/#; + } + # Make sure GIT_DIR is absolute $ENV{GIT_DIR} = File::Spec->rel2abs($ENV{GIT_DIR}); } -- 1.7.9.rc0.5096.g30a61
