Subject: [PATCH v7 4/5] commit, tag: parse --trailer with OPT_STRVEC
Date: Tue, 24 Feb 2026 15:05:50 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260224070552.148591-5-me@linux.beauty> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260224070552.148591-1-me@linux.beauty>
Now that amend_file_with_trailers() expects raw trailer lines, do not
store argv-style "--trailer=<trailer>" strings in git commit and git
tag.
Parse --trailer using OPT_STRVEC so trailer_args contains only the
trailer value, and drop the temporary prefix stripping in
amend_file_with_trailers().
