Subject: [PATCH v2] Reduce false positive in check-non-portable-shell.pl
Date: Sun, 27 Jan 2013 08:47:16 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <201301270847.16646.tboegi@web.de> (raw)

check-non-portable-shell.pl is using simple regular expressions to
find illegal shell syntax.

Improve the expressions and reduce the chance for false positves:

"sed -i" must be followed by 1..n whitespace and 1 non whitespace
"declare" must be followed by 1..n whitespace and 1 non whitespace
"echo -n" must be followed by 1..n whitespace and 1 non whitespace
"which": catch lines like "if which foo"
