Re: [PATCH] git-remote-mediawiki: Fix a bug in a regexp

Le 08/06/2013 20:38, Matthieu Moy a écrit :> This is right, but the code
actually worked the way it was. I'm not

sure, but my understanding is that '\n' is the string "backslash
followed by n", but interpreted as a regexp, it is a newline.

The new code looks better than the old one, but the log message may be
improved.

Is this better?

"
In Perl, '\n' is not a newline, but instead the string composed of a
backslash followed by an "n". To match newlines, one has to use the /\n/
regexp. As the output of "rev-list --first-parent" is line-oriented,
what we want here is to match newlines, and not the "\n" string.
