Hello.
I'm using git-1.5.3.7 on linux.
When I try get use "Make Patch" from by the context menu and click on "Generate"
an error popup appears which states:
"Error creating patch: illegal use of | or &|"
I tracked the problem down to line 5064 in gitk, which belongs to diffcmd:
set cmd [concat | git diff-tree -r $flags $ids]
This line produces something like
| git diff-tree -r -p 5441937e2... 7394db226...
As you see there is a leading pipe symbol which caused the error message.
Is there some special shell to use with gitk?? Or is it just a BUG?
If I remove the | after concat everything works smooth.
Thanks in advance,
-- Maik
