Re: [PATCH] Corrects an Abort Trap: 6 error with completions.

2013-07-08 Thread Steven Klass
Hi Junio,

First - Thanks so much for your reply!  

The original cause was simply running a non-related command.  
Specifically I was trying to build some internal software.  Our internal 
software uses a build build tool from perforce called jam 
(http://www.perforce.com/resources/documentation/jam).  Similar to the make 
build tool this looks up a Jamfile (ergo Makefile) and does the recipe.  The 
issue is that running `jam` fatally aborts right from the start with an 
unintuitive `abort trap: 6` error.  

As you can well imagine figuring out what was causing this was pretty 
difficult - because both the error was cryptic and so unrelated.  I started 
backing out my environment until I was able to narrow this down to the 
bash_completions file.  Further investigation finally nailed it on the 
concatenation of the  `branch. remote.` line 2165.In summary when the lines 
were joined it showed the error, when they were on separate lines everything 
processed as expected.

Again - my only change was to shift them (  branch. remote. ) to two 
separate lines.

HTH

Can you explain how/why the original causes "abort trap: 6"
(whatever it is) and how/why the updated one avoids it in the log
message?

It also is not quite clear when the error happens.  Do you mean, by
"non-git commands", something like:

$ ca

does not complete to "cal", "case", "cat", etc. and instead breaks
the shell?

I am confused.  The only change I can see in the patch is that it
makes the argument to this call to the __gitcomp shell function be a
string with tokens separated by LF and HT and no SP (the original
assumes that the tokens will be split by LF, HT or SP, and the shell
function locally sets $IFS to make sure that the change in this
patch does not make any difference).  And in many other places in
the same script, the __gitcomp shell function is called with an
argument with LF, HT or SP spearated tokens, e.g.

_git_add ()
{
case "$cur" in
--*)
__gitcomp "
--interactive --refresh --patch --update --dry-run
--ignore-errors --intent-to-add
"
return
esac

[PATCH] Corrects an Abort Trap: 6 error with completions.

2013-07-08 Thread Steven Klass
Hi Folks,

Corrects an Abort Trap: 6 error with completions.
Fixed an issue where the two commands on a single line  would cause a 
strange unrelated 'Abort trap: 6' error on  non-git commands on Mac OSX 10.8.
