cg-commit path handling problem

cg-commit path handling problem

[Christian Jaeger]

Hello

I did create a repository from a directory containing, amongst other 
stuff, files starting with a $ sign. E.g.

$ find
./foo
./bar
./var/cache
./var/cache/$foo
./var/cache/$foo::bar
./var/cache/$baz

$ cg-init
...

Now I realized that I didn't want the var directory in the repository and did

$ cg-rm -r var
$ cg-commit var

which worked without warning, but:

$ cg-status
..
D var/cache/$foo
D var/cache/$foo::bar
D var/cache/$baz

So I try again:

$ cg-commit var

will open the editor with the $.. files in the CG: part, I enter a 
commit message, exit the editor, it sayys "Refusing to make an empty 
commit".

$ cg-commit -f var

says "committed as ....", but cg-status will still show the same files as D

As per suggestion from #git, I did the equivalent of

find var -name '$*' |xargs git commit -m please_go_away --

which worked.

So I guess that the cg-commit shell script isn't protecting file 
paths against variable substitution somewhere.

This is cogito-0.17.2 and git 1.2.6 (from Debian unstable rebuilt on Sarge).

Thanks for caring,
Christian.
