It seems that my cover letter got denied since it contained non-ascii in the subject.

I’ll re-roll later.

Interestingly though it worked for the third patch which had the same
subject since it got encoded properly. But I pasted in the same subject
manually in the cover letter.

This example pretends as if the above was an interactive session the
writer of the documentation did with a shell in a terminal, and
these lines are trying to show that each line is prefixed with $PS2
(the secondary prompt string given by the shell for continued
lines).

Taking that fact into account, it is arguably more correct to keep
these spaces rather than removing them like this patch does, but of
course it does not make a practical difference, because these spaces
are invisible unless the reader reads the source documentation pages
without passing them through AsciiDoc machinery.

The only folks that would be helped by this patch are those of us
who edit one of these four lines of the source file (perhaps by
replacing '>' with '|', such a patch tries to show use of a
different $PS2) and are annoyed to see trailing whitespaces their
patch inherited from the original trigger "git diff --check"; I
wonder if that is a good enough justification.

I, however, do wonder if we should make our example more friendly to
cutting and pasting.  And I would not mind it if we got rid of these
4 trailing whitespaces as a side effect of such an effort.

One way to do so, while still pretending to show an actual session
with an interactive shell, may be to give the example with an empty
string set to $PS2, i.e.

    $ git interpret-trailers <<\EOF
    subject

    message

    see: HEAD~2
    EOF
    subject
    ...

but then it makes it a bit harder to see what is input and what is
output.  Showing with a separate intermediate file, i.e.

    $ cat sample-message.txt
    subject

    message

    see: HEAD~2
    $ git interpret-trailers <sample-message.txt
    subject
    ...

might make the result slightly easier to follow.  I dunno.

The same comment applies to the other hunk.

Thanks.

[PATCH v2 0/3] doc: interpret-trailers: don't use deprecated config

[Kristoffer Haugsbakk]

Replace deprecated `command` with `cmd` (patch 2). While visiting this
file also rewrite heredoc examples to use files which are shown with
cat(1) (patch 1) and fix two examples that didn’t work properly (patch
3).

§ Changes in v2

First of all I had to send a second version since I messed up sending my
v1 cover letter (unencoded Unicode in the subject). But I ended up doing
quite a few changes:

1. Patch 1: Junio had some alternative suggestions. Remove trailing
   spaces by using files which are shown with cat(1) and thereby make it
   easier to copy-paste from the docs.
2. Patch 2: Fix discrepancy (see/sign) in commit message (thanks to
   Andrei Rybak)
3. Patch 2: minor commit message correction
4. Patch 3: Fix another example and build on top of it by using the
   typical “subject/message” format instead of an empty file and an
   s-o-b file (a file with just an s-o-b trailer)

[PATCH v3 0/4] doc: interpret-trailers: don't use deprecated config

[Kristoffer Haugsbakk]

Replace deprecated `command` with `cmd` (patch 3). While visiting this
file also:

• rewrite heredoc examples to use files which are shown with
  cat(1) (patch 1);
• use input redirection instead of using cat(1) piped into `git
  interpret-trailers` (patch 2); and
• fix an example that didn’t work properly (patch 4).

§ Changes in v3

• All patches: drop “Cc” trailers
• Patch 1: Use input redirection instead of `cat msg.txt | git […]`
• Patch 2: New
• Patch 3: Add “acked” trailer
• Patch 4: Tweak commit message

[PATCH v3 1/4] doc: interpret-trailers: don’t use heredoc in examples

[Kristoffer Haugsbakk]

This file contains four instances of trailing spaces from its inception
in commit [1]. These spaces might be intentional, since a user would be
prompted with `> ` in an interactive session. On the one hand, this is a
whitespace error according to `git diff --check`; on the other hand, the
raw documentation—it makes no difference in the rendered output—is just
staying faithful to the simulation of the interactive prompt.

Let’s get rid of these whitespace errors and also make the examples more
friendly to cut-and-paste by replacing the heredocs with files which are
shown with cat(1).

Nobody created empty-msg.txt and readers need to guess that it is a
file with 0-byte contents.  Using "</dev/null" would have avoided
the need for guessing.

But it seems that this goes away at the end of the series, so let's
not worry too much about it ;-)

Perhaps explain why it is a good idea in the body of the message?

    Instead of "cat"ting a single file into a pipe, redirect from
    the file to the standard input of the command on the downstream
    side of the pipe.  This is more straight-forward, saves one
    extra process, and often makes the line shorter.

or something like that.

[PATCH v3 3/4] doc: interpret-trailers: don’t use deprecated config

[Kristoffer Haugsbakk]

`command` has been deprecated since commit c364b7ef51 (trailer: add new
.cmd config option, 2021-05-03).

Use the commit message of c364b7ef51 as a guide to replace the use of
`$ARG` and to use a script instead of an inline command.[1] Also,
explicitly trigger the command by passing in `--trailer=see`, since
this config is not automatically used.[2]

[1]: “Instead of "$ARG", users can refer to the value as positional
   argument, $1, in their scripts.”
[2]: “At the same time, in order to allow `git interpret-trailers` to
   better simulate the behavior of `git command -s`,
   'trailer.<token>.cmd' will not automatically execute.”

[PATCH v3 4/4] doc: interpret-trailers: fix example

[Kristoffer Haugsbakk]

We need to provide `--trailer sign` since the command won’t output
anything if you don’t give it an input and/or a
`--trailer`. Furthermore, the message which already contains an s-o-b is
wrong:

    $ git interpret-trailers --trailer sign <msg.txt
    Signed-off-by: Alice <alice@example.com>

    Signed-off-by: Alice <alice@example.com>

This can’t be what was originally intended.

So change the messages in this example to use the typical
“subject/message” file.

This was a pleasant read.  I had small nits here and there but
overall the series is very well crafted.

[PATCH v4 0/4] doc: interpret-trailers: don't use deprecated config

[Kristoffer Haugsbakk]

Replace deprecated `command` with `cmd` (patch 3). While visiting this
file also:

• rewrite heredoc examples to use files which are shown with
  cat(1) (patch 1);
• use input redirection instead of using cat(1) piped into `git
  interpret-trailers` (patch 2); and
• fix an example that didn’t work properly (patch 4).

§ Changes in v4

• Patch 1: Use `/dev/null` instead of `empty-msg.txt`
• Patch 2: Expand commit message

[PATCH v4 1/4] doc: interpret-trailers: don’t use heredoc in examples

[Kristoffer Haugsbakk]

This file contains four instances of trailing spaces from its inception
in commit [1]. These spaces might be intentional, since a user would be
prompted with `> ` in an interactive session. On the one hand, this is a
whitespace error according to `git diff --check`; on the other hand, the
raw documentation—it makes no difference in the rendered output—is just
staying faithful to the simulation of the interactive prompt.

Let’s get rid of these whitespace errors and also make the examples more
friendly to cut-and-paste by replacing the heredocs with files which are
shown with cat(1).

Looking good.  Will replace.  I'll ping Christian as the area expert
just in case there is something obvious we missed, but let's aim to

When I suggested to use "cat" to show contents, instead of
pretending an interactive session, I didn't check if we already had
examples, but it looks like we did, which is great.

> +$ cat msg.txt | git interpret-trailers --trailer="help:Junio" --trailer="help:Couder"

Do not "cat" a single file and pipe into another command.  It will
always be equivalent to redirecting that file into the command on
the downstream, i.e.

   $ git interpret-trailers --options <mst.txt

> +$ sed --in-place -e 's/ Z$/ /' commit_template.txt

Avoid "--in-place"; not everybody's "sed" has it.

Other than that, I didn't spot anything glaringly wrong.

Thanks for working on this series.

[PATCH v2 2/3] doc: interpret-trailers: don’t use deprecated config

[Kristoffer Haugsbakk]

`command` has been deprecated since commit c364b7ef51 (trailer: add new
.cmd config option, 2021-05-03).

Use the commit message of c364b7ef51 as a guide to replace the use of
`$ARG` and to use a script instead of an inline command.[1] Also,
explicitly trigger the command by passing in `--trailer=see`, since
this config is not automatically used.[2]

[1]: “Instead of "$ARG", users can refer to the value as positional
   argument, $1, in their scripts.”
[2]: “At the same time, in order to allow `git interpret-trailers` to
   better simulate the behavior of `git command -s`,
   'trailer.<token>.cmd' will not automatically execute.”

This may be a question more for Zhening than for you, but is the
above a typo for "git commit -s", not "command"?

> +$ git config trailer.see.cmd "glog-ref"
> +$ cat msg.txt | git interpret-trailers --trailer=see

This is inherited from the original, but it is a poor practice to
run "cat" on a single file and pipe the result to another command.
Just redirect from the file into the downstream command instead,
i.e.

    $ git interpret-trailers <empty-msg.txt

Perhaps we should do that as a preliminary clean-up before these
updates?

I think updating to use `<msg.txt` for existing (on `master`) examples
would fit in as patch number 2, since I rewrite heredocs to use files in
patch 1. The commit message for patch 2 would then say, “and let’s make
things consistent for the other examples as well”.

Thanks for spotting that. :)

The suggestion to do so in a separate preliminary step was made
because I had an impression that existing examples were full of
these "cat file | command" patterns, and you were adjusting only
some of them.  If there were (I didn't count or re-check the file)
say 10 such bad examples and you are only changing only two for the
primary purpose of the patch (i.e. use interpret-trailers command
correctly), updating the other 8 bad examples "while at it" would
make the patch with unnecessarily noisy, and fixing the "cat file |"
in a separate step may help us let each step of the series focus on
one thing and do it well.

But I see there is only one or two existing "cat file | command", so
I agree with you that it is more reasonable to do it there.

Thanks.

Changing these examples from command -> cmd makes sense.
So users will tend to use 'cmd' instead of 'command' as much as
possible when referring to examples.

[PATCH v2 3/3] doc: interpret-trailers: fix examples

[Kristoffer Haugsbakk]

We need to provide `--trailer sign` since the command won’t output
anything if you don’t give it an input and/or a
`--trailer`. Furthermore, the example where `msg.txt` already contains
an s-o-b is wrong:

    $ cat msg.txt | git interpret-trailers --trailer sign
    Signed-off-by: Alice <alice@example.com>

    Signed-off-by: Alice <alice@example.com>

A file which only consists of one trailer line is not interpreted as the
original example must have expected. So change the examples to use the
typical “subject/message” file.
