And yes, I use gitk and git log -p frequently, but not everyone does and the concern is someone alters the code without looking at the history. Considering it took 13+ months to have someone realize it - I wanted some way to make clear that someone needs to look at the history before just changing this.

I do understand your concern about having to wade through log -p output, especially when you encounter something like 834c5720 which truly is evil (I started over like 3 times with 3 different ugly results), but once you make friends with gitk, tig or whatever interactive tool, everything becomes a little more convenient. In conclusion, I think something like "Don't make calling of vshReadlineDeinit conditional on active interactive mode." would suffice.

[libvirt] [PATCH] vsh: Write out history on "quit" or "exit" in interactive mode
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1379895 Introduced by commit id '834c5720'. During the code motion and creation of vsh.c, the function 'vshDeinit()' in the (new) vsh.c was altered from whence it came in virsh.c such that calling 'vshReadlineDeinit(ctl)' was conditional on "ctl->imode". This causes a problem for the interactive running if the "quit" and "exit" commands are used because 'cmdQuit' will clear ctl->imode, thus when the interactive loop in main() of virsh.c exits because ctl->mode is clear and virshDeinit is called which calls vshDeinit, the history file is now not written. Conversely, if one had exited the interactive loop via pressing D the file would be created because loop control is broken on EOF and ctl->imode is not set to false. This patch will remove the conditional call to vshReadlineDeinit and restore the former behaviour. Signed-off-by: John Ferlan--- I realize some people don't like the comment I added; however, I'd rather be "safe" when purely reading the code than expect someone to do a git log -p looking at commit messages for "removed" lines of code. An alternative approach would be to create/set a new boolean value such as "iquit" (or "iexit") during cmdQuit and then in vshDeinit make calling vshReadlineDeinit() conditional on "ctl->imode || ctl->iquit" Calling the vshReadlineDeinit during non interactive mode would have no affect since vshReadlineInit is only called if ctl->imode is set. The Deinit function will essentially do nothing other than a couple of VIR_FREE(NULL); and one extra "if" tools/vsh.c | 8 ++-- 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/tools/vsh.c b/tools/vsh.c index 041113f..eba3f0f 100644 --- a/tools/vsh.c +++ b/tools/vsh.c @@ -3093,8 +3093,12 @@ vshInitReload(vshControl *ctl) void vshDeinit(vshControl *ctl) { -if (ctl->imode) -vshReadlineDeinit(ctl); +/* Don't make calling vshReadlineDeinit conditional on imode.
