end up injecting the ASCII code for "0", 0x30, instead.
- printf '\0' | dd of=.git/objects/pack/pack-$pack.pack bs=1 conv=notrunc seek=12 && + printf "\0" | dd of=.git/objects/pack/pack-$pack.pack bs=1 conv=notrunc seek=12 &&
In sh/bash, this should make no difference, and that's what I get here. Am I missing something? $ printf '\0' | hexdump 0000000 0000 0000001 $ printf "\0" | hexdump 0000000 0000 0000001 Chris
