I do not see any dq within dq here. Perhaps you need to count again to see which one pairs with which one. What I see are these three strings concatenated together: --pretty=format: (which does not need any dq) %an %ad (the dq protects 3 SPs inside) (an empty string inside the final dq pair) So the single parameter that begins with --pretty given to git log is exactly the same as what is inside the single dq pair in the following: --pretty=format:%an %ad A more conventional way to spell it may however be one of: --pretty=format:%an %ad --pretty=format:%an %ad -- 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
Re: [msysGit] Re: #178 parsing of pretty=format:%an %ad causes fatal: bad revision '%ad'
Hi, Interesting discussion. However, the example below of three-spaces between %an and %ad in the example below resulted in the formatting of the output with the three spaces, but no dq's. Original #178 content G:\ws_test_env\GIT_TESTBED_TMP\fest-swing-1.xgit log --all --pretty=format:%an%ad -- pom.xml Mon Nov 23 03:09:17 2009 + Mon Nov 23 02:42:24 2009 + This added to my confusion as by right dq within dq should be formatted. (Yea right, these days its needs to be escaped. But haven't tried that.) In summary so far, it would appear that the --pretty. needs to be contained in double-quotes as a whole. This was the solution I applied to my problem. In the discussions I've seen more information requested as to the arguments provided to the execution class. I solved this issue as I made it work by experiment. I format the argument as a whole and don't have the space. IE. pretty=format:name:%an%nauthor:%ad%n.
