[PATCH v2 1/2] send-email: align RFC 2047 decoding more closely with the spec

[PATCH v2 1/2] send-email: align RFC 2047 decoding more closely with the spec

[Роман Донченко]

More specifically:

* Add "\" to the list of characters not allowed in a token (see RFC 2047
  errata).

* Share regexes between unquote_rfc2047 and is_rfc2047_quoted. Besides
  removing duplication, this also makes unquote_rfc2047 more stringent.

* Allow both "q" and "Q" to identify the encoding.

* Allow lowercase hexadecimal digits in the "Q" encoding.

And, more on the cosmetic side:

* Change the "encoded-text" regex to exclude rather than include characters,
  for clarity and consistency with "token".

[PATCH v2 2/2] send-email: handle adjacent RFC 2047-encoded words properly

[Роман Донченко]

The RFC says that they are to be concatenated after decoding (i.e. the
intervening whitespace is ignored).

Thanks. Both patches look good to me, and I'd be happy to have them
applied as-is. I wrote a few comments below, but in all cases I think I
convinced myself that what you wrote is best.

It feels a little weird to have to split and rematch $re_encoded_word in
the loop, but I don't think there is a way around it. ($1, $2, $3) will
have our first word, and ($4, $5, $6) will have the final (if any), but
I don't think we can get access to what is in between.

So I think what you have here is the best we can do.

It took me a minute to figure out why this works. $_ is a reference to
the iterator for @words, so it is re-assigning that element of the array
first to the encoded text, and then modifying it in place.

I wonder if it would be more obvious like this:

  join '',
  map {
          m/$re_encoded_word/;
	  $charset = $1;
	  my $encoding = $2;
	  my $text = $3;
          if ($encoding eq 'q' || $encoding eq 'Q') {
	    $text =~ s/_/ /g;
	    $text =~ s=([0-9A-F]{2}/chr(hex($1))/egi;
	  } else {
	    # other encoding not supported yet
	  }
  } split($sep, $&);


I dunno. I kind of like your version better now that I understand it,
but it did take me a minute.

One final note on this bit of code: if there are multiple encoded words,
we grab the $charset from the final encoded word, and never report the
earlier charsets. Technically they do not all have to be the same
(rfc2047 even has an example where they are not). I think we can dismiss
this, though, as:

  1. It was like this before your patches (we might have seen multiple
     non-adjacent encoded words; you're just handling adjacent ones),
     and nobody has complained.

  2. Using two separate encodings in the same header is sufficiently
     ridiculous that I can live with us not handling it properly.

I had the same concerns myself, and eventually convinced myself of the  
same. :-)

Yeah, that bugs me as well. But I think handling multiple encodings would  
require substantial reworking of the code, so I chickened out (with the  
same excuses :-)).

Would that be worth a terse comment in the documentation change part of 
the patch?
"Multiple  (RFC2047) encodings are not supported.",
or would that be bike shed noise.

I didn't change any documentation... and in either case, they weren't  
supported in the first place, so I don't think it's anything I need to  
mention.

I'd confused this with the crossing thread by Paolo Bonzini 
<bonzini@gnu.org> [PATCH 2/2] git-send-email: add --transfer-encoding 
option; 25 November 2014 14:00. $gmane/260217.

Sorry for the noise.
