[PATCH] git-gui: Added support for OS X right click

[Väinö Järvelä]

OS X sends Button-2 on a "real" right click, such as with a three
button mouse, or by using the two-finger trackpad click.

Thanks, this will be in 0.8.1.  I'm pushing it out shortly.

I had a devil of a time applying your patch though.  git-am
choked because the patch was whitespace damaged, and then after
hand-correction and resuming it horribly munged your name's encoding
in the commit.  I think there's a bug in there in git-am; I'll
have to try to track it down.  I managed to get the patch applied
correctly by editing the mbox file directly, so that git-am did
not need to stop and ask me to resolve the patch.

It seems that Apple's Mail.app just doesn't like to send patches
without destroying them.  If you do wind up sending another patch
in the future it may just be easier if you attach the mbox that
format-patch creates, instead of trying to inline it in the
message body.

I tried reproducing the encoding breakage and it ended up fine. I just
edited the patch in the .dotest directory (looks like the leading spaces
were all stripped) and it applied fine when I re-ran "git-am".

Are you sure it didn't get munged by your editor when you hand-edited
the mbox file?

My mutt-foo isn't very good.  I tried to tell it utf-8, but I think
its ignoring me:

  set allow_8bit=yes
  set charset=utf8

I just tried to reproduce it myself and I can't do whatever I did
before again now; it Just Works(tm).  *sigh*  No idea how I messed
the patch application up earlier, but I did.

It wasn't my patch editing.  My vi clone only works on bytes, so
it doesn't care about character encodings and won't mangle them
unless I edit a utf-8 multibyte sequence by hand.  Which I'm sure
I didn't do.  And the first time I messed up the apply I was fixing
up only .dotest/patch, which was most certainly just us-ascii.

I'm actually pretty good about making sure I don't munge people's
non-ASCII names, but my mutt seems to think us-ascii is the only
character encoding in the world.

Try looking at the send_charset config option; by default mutt will try
to send us-ascii if possible. Also, should it be "utf-8"?

OK, given that I couldn't reproduce it either, we should perhaps chalk
it up to cosmic rays.

Thanks, that actually did the trick.  This message might actually
arrive to you encoded in UTF-8.  Not that it matters.  ;-)

Or more likely the gap between the keyboard and the chair (aka me).
I may have actually done something at one point to damage that mbox.
git-am ran anyway, but gave me a garbled author name.  Always blame
the user, it probably really is his fault.  ;-)

Actually, the email claims it was iso-latin1, at least here. Which the 
*body* of the email apparently really was.

However (and this is a pretty common thing), the *headers* are 
unspecified, and a lot of email clients seem to think that if that 
happens, they default to US-ASCII and think that those iso-latin1 
characters are crud.

Which is a damn shame. "alpine" does this, and it irritates me no end. I 
see emails where I can read the body fine, but it shows '????' for subject 
lines and authors even though it's the exact same character set.

Stupid, stupid, stupid.

Dammit, if the thing says

	Content-type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed

(which it did), then yes, by some idiotic reading of the RFC's that 
probably only affects the body of the email. But those headers (and the 
"From:" line in particular) were *also* in ISO-8859-1, and email clients 
should default to using the same character set unless something else is 
said.

Btw, I suspect git "mailsplit" gets this wrong too. I rant and rave, but 
in the end, I solved it by just having the code guess sanely (commit 
b59d398beab604e577846ef8393735478c1ca3c2 makes things come out right in 
practice, regardless) instead of trying to do something "technically 
correct".

I think something is munging along the way for at least one of us. My
copy of the mail clearly says:

  Content-type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

and it has been through nothing between vger and my disk except qmail
(and there tends to be no munging there, since qmail accepts 8bit smtp).

The "from" header, on the other hand, is encoded in rfc2047-style
iso-8859-1.

Well, that _is_ what the standard says, I believe. I agree with you that
practice is more important than a standard, and if there are high-bit
characters in the 'From' field, I think that using the body charset is a
reasonable guess (although keep in mind that the "body" could be hidden
below a multipart/mixed,  multipart/alternative, or some other arcane
structure).

But I really have no idea why fully mime-aware mailers refuse to use
rfc2047 encoding of the headers. In fact, my copy of the message you
sent (to which I am replying) has munged Väinö's name in the cc header,
because it failed to use rfc2047 encoding. I'm surprised that alpine
would fail to get that right.

You are right in that Mail.app seems to eat up the whitespaces in the  
patch. I emailed the patch first to myself, and everything seemed  
fine, should have tested it with git-am rather than eyeballing it,  
sorry.

About the name-munging, that didn't happen for me, after i fixed the  
spacing with Vim, the name shows up correctly in Git log. It seems  
that the email is ISO-8859-1 encoded, I'll enforce UTF-8  encoding  
next time if it helps, and I'll see if I can send an inlined patch  
which works.
