Subject: [PATCH] git-web--browse: invoke kfmclient directly
Date: Sun, 18 Sep 2011 22:20:24 +1200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1316341224-4359-1-git-send-email-judge.packham@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20110918032933.GA17977@sigill.intra.peff.net>

Instead of using eval which causes problems when a URL contains an
appropriately escaped ampersand (\&).

So here is my attempt at a fix for kfmclient.

For what it's worth I've included a testcase that detects my problem. I'm not
sure if the testcase is really worth it because the test library suppresses X
applications and even if it didn't the testcase is fairly trivial and might
just annoy people by opening web-browsers (and it snaps up the last t99xx
prefix).
