> Key: COUCHDB-1628
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-1628
> Project: CouchDB
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Build System
> Reporter: Christopher Bonhage
> Assignee: Jan Lehnardt
> Attachments: 0001-Fix-BSD-GNU-sed-extended-regex-flag-inconsistency.patch
>
>
> The bootstrap script currently generates a THANKS file by grepping through the git shortlog
and running an extended regular expression command on the resulting stream using sed (line
48):
> git shortlog -se 6c976bd..HEAD \
> | grep -v @apache.org \
> | sed -E "s/^[[:blank:]]{5}[[:digit:]]+[[:blank:]]/ * /" >> THANKS
> BSD sed uses the '-E' option to interpret regular expressions as extended (modern) regular
expressions rather than basic regular expressions (BRE's). GNU sed uses the '-r' option for
this behavior.
> The bootstrap script should be modified to detect the proper flag to use. I am currently
using a patch which checks the system's uname to determine the flag.
