From de121ffe57fd14334c24f0ac51dbc6828a3bc315 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?Martin=20=C3=85gren?= Date: Wed, 2 Aug 2017 21:40:53 +0200 Subject: tag: respect `pager.tag` in list-mode only MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Using, e.g., `git -c pager.tag tag -a new-tag` results in errors such as "Vim: Warning: Output is not to a terminal" and a garbled terminal. Someone who makes use of both `git tag -a` and `git tag -l` will probably not set `pager.tag`, so that `git tag -a` will actually work, at the cost of not paging output of `git tag -l`. Use the mechanisms introduced in two earlier patches to ignore `pager.tag` in git.c and let the `git tag` builtin handle it on its own. Only respect `pager.tag` when running in list-mode. There is a window between where the pager is started before and after this patch. This means that early errors can behave slightly different before and after this patch. Since operation-parsing has to happen inside this window, this can be seen with `git -c pager.tag="echo pager is used" tag -l --unknown-option`. This change in paging-behavior should be acceptable since it only affects erroneous usages. Update the documentation and update tests. If an alias is used to run `git tag -a`, then `pager.tag` will still be respected. Document this known breakage. It will be fixed in a later commit. Add a similar test for `-l`, which works.
