That sounds quite plausible, so if there is no further discussion,
let me queue a version that does s/rs/rec/ on that line myself
(bypassing a pull from your repository at bogomips.org/).

Thanks.

Yup, you're right. I missed that.

I've always known chomp to respect the value of $/; so chomp($rec)
whould only cut out whatever $rs is, and be a no-op if $rs is undef.

Subtle difference, that chomp() still sees $/ as "\n".
$/ is only undef inside get_record.

I think the chomp is necessary. In git-svn.perl /^sub get_commit_entry {:

# 
open my $log_fh, '>', $commit_editmsg or croak $!;

# 
$msgbuf =~ s/\s+$//s;

# 

print $log_fh $msgbuf or croak $!;

# 
close $log_fh or croak $!;

# Above, we ensured the contents of $commit_editmsg has no trailing newline

if ($_edit || ($type eq 'tree')) {
chomp(my $editor = command_oneline(qw(var GIT_EDITOR)));
system('sh', '-c', $editor.' "$@"', $editor, $commit_editmsg);
}

# However, $editor is likely to introduce a trailing newline

rename $commit_editmsg, $commit_msg or croak $!;
{
require Encode;
# SVN requires messages to be UTF-8 when entering the repo
open $log_fh, '<', $commit_msg or croak $!;
binmode $log_fh;

# chomp trailing newline introduced by $editor:

chomp($log_entry{log} = get_record($log_fh, undef));

Whether this makes any sense is another question, but you seem to have
explicitly meant this at the time. The full function definition with
documentation:

=item get_record ( FILEHANDLE, INPUT_RECORD_SEPARATOR )

Read one record from FILEHANDLE delimited by INPUT_RECORD_SEPARATOR,
removing any trailing INPUT_RECORD_SEPARATOR.

=cut

sub get_record {
my ($fh, $rs) = @_;
local $/ = $rs;
my $rec = <$fh>;
chomp $rec if defined $rs;
$rec;
}

It doesn't make to remove the trailing record separator if it's not
defined, otherwise we'd be coercing undef to "\n" while at the same time
returning multiple records. But then of course the only user of this
with an "undef" argument just does:

chomp($log_entry{log} = get_record($log_fh, undef));

So we could also remove that chomp(), adn not check defined $rs, but IMO
it's cleaner & more consistent this way.

I'm struggling to understand the reason for the "defined $rs"
check.  I think it was a braino on my part and meant to use:

chomp $rec if defined $rec;
