This is madness. For all the reasons Dave points out later in the thread. You can't store and make sense of the push cert without the LF record delimiters. push cert format is like commit or tag format. You need those LFs. We can't just go declare them optional because of the way pkt-line read function is implemented in git-core. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
