Subject: config: reject `\n' in `inboxdir'
X-Git-Tag: v1.6.0~237
X-Git-Url: http://www.git.stargrave.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d87dd0e6795870439422ee4f0039d0d76d1974b3;p=public-inbox.git

config: reject `\n' in `inboxdir'

"\n" and other characters requiring quoting and/or escaping in
in $GIT_DIR/objects/info/alternates was not supported in git 2.11
and earlier; nor does it seem supported at all in libgit2.

This will allow us to support sharing git-cat-file or similar
endpoints across multiple inboxes via alternates.

This breaks an existing use case for anybody wacky
enough to put `\n' in the `inboxdir' pathname; but I doubt
this affects anybody.
