Subject: [PATCH 1/2] legacy stash: fix "rudimentary backport of -q"
Date: Thu, 07 Mar 2019 07:29:32 -0800 (PST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <f76c7cb66c43a6c4bf712516949a867b09710103.1551972571.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <pull.159.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>

From: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>

When this developer backported support for `--quiet` to the scripted
version of `git stash` in 80590055ea (stash: optionally use the scripted
version again, 2018-12-20), it looked like a sane choice to use `eval`
to execute the command line passed in via the parameter list of
`maybe_quiet`.

However, that is not what we should have done, as that command-line was
already in the correct shape.

This can be seen very clearly when passing arguments with special
characters, like

	git stash -- ':(glob)**/*.txt'

Since this is exactly what we want to test in the next commit (where we
fix this very incantation with the built-in stash), let's fix the legacy
scripted version of `git stash` first.
