Mike Mueller c3f2358de3 p4 unshelve: fix "Not a valid object name HEAD0" on Windows
git p4 unshelve was failing with these errors:

fatal: Not a valid object name HEAD0
Command failed: git cat-file commit HEAD^0

(git version 2.21.0.windows.1, python 2.7.16)

The pOpen call used by git-p4 to invoke the git command can take either a
string or an array as a first argument. The array form is preferred
because platform-specific escaping of special characters will be
handled automatically.(https://docs.python.org/2/library/subprocess.html)
The extractLogMessageFromGitCommit method was, however, using the string
form and so the caret (^) character in the HEAD^0 argument was not being
escaped on Windows.  The caret happens to be the escape character, which
is why the git command was receiving HEAD0.

The behaviour can be confirmed by typing ECHO HEAD^0 at the command-
prompt, which emits HEAD0.

The solution is simply to use the array format of passing the command to
fOpen, which is recommended and used in other parts of this code anyway.

Git - fast, scalable, distributed revision control system

Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals.

Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License version 2 (some parts of it are under different licenses, compatible with the GPLv2). It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net.

Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.

Many Git online resources are accessible from https://git-scm.com/ including full documentation and Git related tools.

See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see Documentation/giteveryday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and Documentation/git-.txt for documentation of each command. If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be read with man gittutorial or git help tutorial, and the documentation of each command with man git-<commandname> or git help <commandname>.

CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt (man gitcvs-migration or git help cvs-migration if git is installed).

The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission). To subscribe to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are available at https://public-inbox.org/git/, http://marc.info/?l=git and other archival sites.

Issues which are security relevant should be disclosed privately to the Git Security mailing list git-security@googlegroups.com.

The maintainer frequently sends the "What's cooking" reports that list the current status of various development topics to the mailing list. The discussion following them give a good reference for project status, development direction and remaining tasks.

  • random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not actually used by any common UNIX command. The fact that it is a mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant.
  • stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the dictionary of slang.
  • "global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room.
  • "goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks
