Subject: should config options be treated as case-sensitive?
Date: Tue, 22 May 2018 03:57:45 -0400 (EDT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <alpine.LFD.2.21.1805220353370.989@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
in my wanderings, more oddities, such as this:
$ grep -ir blankboundary *
builtin/blame.c: if (!strcmp(var, "blame.blankboundary")) {
Documentation/config.txt:blame.blankBoundary::
Documentation/blame-options.txt: be controlled via the `blame.blankboundary` config option.
Documentation/RelNotes/2.15.1.txt: * Description of blame.{showroot,blankboundary,showemail,date}
Documentation/RelNotes/2.16.0.txt: * Description of blame.{showroot,blankboundary,showemail,date}
$
where you can see the single instance of "blankBoundary" in
Doc/config.txt (with the upper case 'B'), while the rest have no such
thing.
for fun, i checked another of blame's config settings, with similar
results:
builtin/blame.c: if (!strcmp(var, "blame.showemail")) {
Documentation/config.txt:blame.showEmail::
Documentation/RelNotes/2.15.1.txt: * Description of blame.{showroot,blankboundary,showemail,date}
Documentation/RelNotes/2.5.0.txt: * "git blame" learned blame.showEmail configuration variable.
Documentation/RelNotes/2.16.0.txt: * Description of blame.{showroot,blankboundary,showemail,date}
Documentation/git-blame.txt: This can also be controlled via the `blame.showEmail` config
t/t8002-blame.sh:test_expect_success 'setup showEmail tests' '
t/t8002-blame.sh:test_expect_success 'blame with showemail options' '
t/t8002-blame.sh:test_expect_success 'blame with showEmail config false' '
t/t8002-blame.sh: git config blame.showEmail false &&
t/t8002-blame.sh:test_expect_success 'blame with showEmail config true' '
t/t8002-blame.sh: git config blame.showEmail true &&
thoughts?

p.s. i am not *trying* to be annoyingly pedantic, i am merely
succeeding.
