OK, OK, the one I suggested for xargs was _U_G_L_Y_.
The one Linus suggested looks to me the cleanest. That is, to
give an extra parameter upfront to the command run by xargs. My
favorite trick is like this:
git-fsck-cache --cache --unreachable "$@" |
sed -ne '/unreachable /{
s/unreachable [^ ][^ ]* //
s|\(..\)|\1/|p
}' | {
cd "$GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY" || exit
- xargs -r $dryrun rm -f
+ xargs $dryrun rm -f ""
}
Dry-run would say:
rm -f 00/012345...
rm -f 01/234567...
without visual distraction of having printable phoney names, or
just (with an invisible trailing space):
rm -f
During a real run, "rm -f" would not complain "cannot remove `':
Is a directory", either.
