Hi all, I'm a developer on the Git Extensions project [1] and am looking at an issue parsing the output of `git log` in that application.
Some investigation suggests that a certain combination of arguments causes multiple consecutive null bytes between rows, where I would ordinarily expect one. Passing -z with --name-only causes double nulls. $ git log -z --pretty=format:"%H" --name-only | grep -obUaP "\x00\x00" | wc -l 8994 $ git log -z --pretty=format:"%H" | grep -obUaP "\x00\x00" | wc -l 0 We can work around this issue, but I would like to understand if it's a bug or if there's some information to be gleaned here. $ git --version git version 2.18.0.windows.1 Many thanks, Drew [1] https://github.com/gitextensions/gitextensions
