[Gnu-arch-users] Trying out the new escaping version...

[Pierce T . Wetter III]

Chiming in on the discussion about what to do about escaped file names 
with some naive examples of my trying to start an archive with a bunch 
of files from a customers website with some weird naming, spaces, etc.

tla init-tree --nested website--dev--1.0

tla add *

tla tree-lint
These files would be source but lack inventory ids (`tla add' or a 
tagline perhaps?):

.
.lots of files omitted

dfrontpagehums/hum\(sp)salat\(sp)contest.html
dfrontpagehums/hum\(sp)salat\(sp)order.html
dfrontpagehums/hum\(sp)salat\(sp)pc\(sp)hardware.html

Ok, so I figure I'll just feed the output of tree-lint to add.

[tibook:~/Documents/h2omt/tlawebsite] pierce% tla add `tla tree-lint -t`
[tibook:~/Documents/h2omt/tlawebsite] pierce% tla tree-lint

tagline perhaps?):

dfrontpagehums/_vti_cnf/hum\(sp)salat\(sp)contest.html
dfrontpagehums/_vti_cnf/hum\(sp)salat\(sp)order.html
dfrontpagehums/_vti_cnf/hum\(sp)salat\(sp)pc\(sp)hardware.html
dfrontpagehums/_vti_cnf/hum\(sp)salat\(sp)pc\(sp)software.html

These explicit ids have no corresponding file:

_vti_cnf/.arch-ids/horizontal\\(sp)line2.gif.id
_vti_cnf/.arch-ids/sticky\\(sp)rat\\(sp)issue\\(sp)button.gif.id
dfrontpagehums/.arch-ids/hum\\(sp)salat\\(sp)contest.html.id
dfrontpagehums/.arch-ids/hum\\(sp)salat\\(sp)order.html.id
dfrontpagehums/.arch-ids/hum\\(sp)salat\\(sp)pc\\(sp)hardware.html.id
dfrontpagehums/.arch-ids/hum\\(sp)salat\\(sp)pc\\(sp)software.html.id

Hmmm.... Looks liked it tried to add the files after escaping the 
escape? Well, lets see if I can use tree lint to remove them:

[tibook:~/Documents/h2omt/tlawebsite] pierce% tla tree-lint -m
_vti_cnf/.arch-ids/horizontal\\(sp)line2.gif.id
_vti_cnf/.arch-ids/sticky\\(sp)rat\\(sp)issue\\(sp)button.gif.id
dfrontpagehums/.arch-ids/hum\\(sp)salat\\(sp)contest.html.id
dfrontpagehums/.arch-ids/hum\\(sp)salat\\(sp)order.html.id
dfrontpagehums/.arch-ids/hum\\(sp)salat\\(sp)pc\\(sp)hardware.html.id
dfrontpagehums/.arch-ids/hum\\(sp)salat\\(sp)pc\\(sp)software.html.id
importedweb/.arch-ids/horizontal\\(sp)line2.gif.id
importedweb/.arch-ids/sticky\\(sp)rat\\(sp)issue\\(sp)button.gif.id

Maybe I need unescaped?

[tibook:~/Documents/h2omt/tlawebsite] pierce% tla tree-lint -m 
--unescaped
_vti_cnf/.arch-ids/horizontal\\(sp)line2.gif.id
_vti_cnf/.arch-ids/sticky\\(sp)rat\\(sp)issue\\(sp)button.gif.id
dfrontpagehums/.arch-ids/hum\\(sp)salat\\(sp)contest.html.id
dfrontpagehums/.arch-ids/hum\\(sp)salat\\(sp)order.html.id
dfrontpagehums/.arch-ids/hum\\(sp)salat\\(sp)pc\\(sp)hardware.html.id
dfrontpagehums/.arch-ids/hum\\(sp)salat\\(sp)pc\\(sp)software.html.id
importedweb/.arch-ids/horizontal\\(sp)line2.gif.id
importedweb/.arch-ids/sticky\\(sp)rat\\(sp)issue\\(sp)button.gif.id

No, that looks the same.

Does that help? I'm guessing my first mistake was I should have used:

tla add `tla tree-lint -t --unescaped`
