I've taken the pre-commit hook file provided in \tools and put it in my git hooks folder. However, whenever I commit something (I've focused mostly on dissector patches and they all fail this way), it fails with "Search pattern not terminated at ./tools/checkhf.pl line 564." When I run checkhf.pl from the Windows command-line, I don't get any errors at all. Suggestions? I only thing I can come up with is different a version of perl is being called from the pre-commit than from command-line. I don't consciously have multiple versions of perl installed (in Windows), so I was wondering if others have seen (and fixed) this issue. I would really help catch errors in case I forget to manually run the scripts because I got frustrated and "disabled" the pre-commit hook (which has happened already)
The copy of pre-commit in your .git/hooks/ directory is not tracked/managed by the git repo, so you can edit it by hand... so you could comment out the "./tools/checkhf.pl $FILE" line until this gets resolved - that way you can at least get the other checking in the meantime without resorting to disabling the whole thing. I barely know perl, but checkhf.pl line 564 does indeed look bogus to me. (the double slashes are what it thinks is starting a regex search pattern that's not terminated I believe) Having said that, that function shouldn't be being called/invoked, afaict. It's only supposed to be invoked if the command to run that script uses a "--debug=<number>" or "-d <number>" option I think. And the pre-commit script does not do that. Unless $FILE is somehow a string that appears to be that option? Try putting a 'echo $FILE' in the pre-commit script before the "./tools/checkhf.pl $FILE" line and see what it's printing out when you do 'git commit'. Maybe something weird is going on with the 'git diff-index ... | grep ...' result? -hadriel ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-dev mailing list <wireshark-dev () wireshark org> Archives: http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev Unsubscribe: https://wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-dev mailto:wireshark-dev-request () wireshark org?subject=unsubscribe
