Scripts using these expressions should be converted as follow: test "$1" -a "$2" should be written as: test "$1" && test "$2" Likewise test "$1" -o "$2" should be written as: test "$1" test "$2" But note that, in test, -a has higher precedence than -o while "&&" and "||" have equal precedence in the shell. The reason for this is that the precedence rules were never well specified, and this made many sane-looking uses of "test -a/-o" problematic. For example, if $x is "=", these work according to POSIX (it's not portable, but in practice it's okay): $ test -z "$x" $ test -z "$x" && test a = b but this doesn't $ test -z "$x" -a a = b bash: test: too many arguments because it groups "test -n = -a" and is left with "a = b". Similarly, if $x is "-f", these $ test "$x" $ test "$x" || test c = d correctly adds an implicit "-n", but this fails: $ test "$x" -o c = d bash: test: too many arguments Signed-off-by: Elia Pinto --- Inspired from this discussion http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/137056 contrib/examples/git-clone.sh | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/contrib/examples/git-clone.sh b/contrib/examples/git-clone.sh index b4c9376..08cf246 100755 --- a/contrib/examples/git-clone.sh +++ b/contrib/examples/git-clone.sh @@ -516,7 +516,7 @@ then case "$no_checkout" in '') - test "z$quiet" = z -a "z$no_progress" = z && v=-v || v= + test "z$quiet" = z && test "z$no_progress" = z && v=-v || v= git read-tree -m -u $v HEAD HEAD esac fi -- 1.7.10.4
