There's a problem with the email notification code in Savannah.
Recently a bug was filed (http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?31614) in which
the verbatim tag was used to provide some code examples. In the bug,
the example looks correct:
$ echo 'a\ b:; echo $@' | make -f - "a b"
echo a b
a b
However, I have configured Savannah to forward bug notifications and in
the email I got the backslash was removed; I've noticed this in other
bugs as well and it's supremely annoying as it changes the entire
meaning of the issue to lose the backslashes; in the email I get:
$ echo 'a b:; echo $@' | make -f - "a b"
echo a b
a b
Note the missing backslash which completely changes the example.
Is there somewhere to file a bug about this, and/or can it be fixed?
Cheers!
