Control: severity 1014621 minor
Hello Steve,
this came in to the Debian BTS, cf. <https://bugs.debian.org/1014621> as
well as the full list of reported issues at
<https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?src=tree>.
Oh, I just noticed https://gitlab.com/OldManProgrammer/unix-tree. I
could just file new issues there matching those filed at the Debian BTS,
for easier tracking, if so desired.
JFYI and for your consideration. The issue that наб illustrates seems to
stem from the early "break" when parsing "--timefmt" with a "="
separator (line 428 as of tree 2.0.2). When calling tree without the
"=", e.g. "tree --timefmt %s aac/a", it works as expected. @наб, JFYI,
and with thanks for the report.
One could argue that tree works just as the manpage describes, as there
is no mention of the "=" separator therein, but that would IMHO be
rather nitpicky and distracting, and tree would still violate the
principle of least surprise in this. ;-)
Cheers,
Flo
