Subject: [PATCH] column: fix parsing of the '--nl' option
Date: Wed, 18 Aug 2021 11:24:56 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210818092456.3045808-1-szeder.dev@gmail.com> (raw)

'git column's '--nl' option can be used to specify a "string to be
printed at the end of each line" (quoting the man page), but this
option and its mandatory argument has been parsed as OPT_INTEGER since
the introduction of the command in 7e29b8254f (Add column layout
skeleton and git-column, 2012-04-21).  Consequently, any non-number
argument is rejected by parse-options, and any number other than 0
leads to segfault:

  $ printf "%s\n" one two |git column --mode=plain --nl=foo
  error: option `nl' expects a numerical value
  $ printf "%s\n" one two |git column --mode=plain --nl=42
  Segmentation fault (core dumped)
  $ printf "%s\n" one two |git column --mode=plain --nl=0
  one
  two

Parse this option as OPT_STRING.
