Kim" X-Sender: gene@gw1.pl.cp To: FreeBSD-current Mailing List Subject: bin/3246: mtree -c should escape special and whitespace characters Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-current@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Could anybody please review and commit the patch in the followup of bin/3246? It enables the URL-style escaping and unescaping of certain characters in mtree(8) filenames so that mtree can handle filenames with special or whitespace characters. For example, the filename "I have spaces" will be recorded as "I%20have%20spaces" in the mtree spec file. There is an incompatibility issue regarding preexisting mtree spec files, which is addressed as well in the followup. Thanks, Eugene -- Eugene M. Kim "Is your music unpopular?
