[PATCH] git p4: RCS expansion should not span newlines
From: Pete Wyckoff <hidden>

This bug was introduced in cb585a9 (git-p4: keyword flattening fixes, 2011-10-16). The newline character is indeed special, and $File$ expansions should not try to match across multiple lines.

Hi. Noticed an apparent bug in git-p4 related to RCS keyword expansion. Some files in our Perforce repository have malformed RCS keywords, e.g. "$Revision:" without a closing $. Perforce doesn't expand these, obviously, but when a change to this file is imported into git, everything up to the next $, on another line much later in the file, is deleted. Seems to be due to multi-line matching of RCS keywords. One fix is:diff --git a/git-p4.py b/git-p4.py index f895a24..ae7b431 100755 --- a/git-p4.py +++ b/git-p4.py@@ -215,7 +215,7 @@ def p4_keywords_regexp_for_type(base, type_mods): pattern = r""" \$ # Starts with a dollar, followed by...

Chris, I finally got around to building a test-case for this. The bug has been in since around 1.7.7, so I won't call this exactly urgent, even though it is blatantly buggy as is. Will try to get it into the next release. Thanks, -- Pete git-p4.py | 2 +- t/t9810-git-p4-rcs.sh | 19 +++++++++++++++++++ 2 files changed, 20 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-)
