Re[2]: What can cause empty GIT_AUTHOR_NAME for 'git filter-branch --tree-filter' on Solaris?

[Ilya Basin]

JS> Most likely, your sed has problems with a sed script in function
JS> get_author_ident_from_commit. I tested it like this:

JS> $ sh -c '. $(git --exec-path)/git-sh-setup;
JS>                 get_author_ident_from_commit HEAD'
JS> GIT_AUTHOR_NAME='Johannes Sixt'
JS> GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL='j...@kdbg.org'
JS> GIT_AUTHOR_DATE='@1350025129 +0200'

JS> -- Hannes

Both systems have GNU sed 4.2.1 installed. I wrote a wrapper script wor sed.
It's output attached.
The difference is letter case in sed input data:
Solaris:
  /^AUTHOR /
Windows:
  /^author /

-- 
$ git filter-branch -f --tree-filter "env | grep GIT_; true" HEAD~1..HEAD
