Some users do want to write a line that begin with a pound sign, #,
in their commit log message. Many tracking system recognise
a token of #<bugid> form, for example.
The support we offer these use cases is not very friendly to the end
users. They have a choice between
- Don't do it. Avoid such a line by rewrapping or indenting; and
- Use --cleanup=whitespace but remove all the hint lines we add.
Give them a way to set a custom comment char, e.g.
$ git -c core.commentchar="%" commit
so that they do not have to do either of the two workarounds.
[jc: although I started the topic, all the tests and documentation
updates, many of the call sites of the new strbuf_add_commented_*()
functions, and the change to git-submodule.sh scripted Porcelain are
from Ralf.]

NAME

----
|
|
git-stripspace - Remove unnecessary whitespace
|
|
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
[verse]
|
|
'git stripspace' [-s | --strip-comments] < input
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
Clean the input in the manner used by 'git' for text such as commit
|
|
messages, notes, tags and branch descriptions.
|
|
|
|
With no arguments, this will:
|
|
|
|
- remove trailing whitespace from all lines
|
|
- collapse multiple consecutive empty lines into one empty line
|
|
- remove empty lines from the beginning and end of the input
|
|
- add a missing '\n' to the last line if necessary.
|
|
|
|
In the case where the input consists entirely of whitespace characters, no
|
|
output will be produced.
|
|
|
|
*NOTE*: This is intended for cleaning metadata, prefer the `--whitespace=fix`
|
|
mode of linkgit:git-apply[1] for correcting whitespace of patches or files in
|
|
the repository.
|
|
|
|
OPTIONS
|
|
-------
|
|
-s::
|
|
--strip-comments::
|
|
Skip and remove all lines starting with comment character (default '#').
|
|
|
|
-c::
|
|
--comment-lines::
|
|
Prepend comment character and blank to each line. Lines will automatically
|
|
be terminated with a newline. On empty lines, only the comment character
|
|
will be prepended.
|
|
|
|
EXAMPLES
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
Given the following noisy input with '$' indicating the end of a line:
|
|
|
|
--------
|
|
|A brief introduction $
|
|
| $
|
|
|$
|
|
|A new paragraph$
|
|
|# with a commented-out line $
|
|
|explaining lots of stuff.$
|
|
|$
|
|
|# An old paragraph, also commented-out. $
|
|
| $
|
|
|The end.$
|
