Cannot add repos to TTC_REPOS if the path contains a space

Oh yeah you're totally right. I use the space as delimiters. I'm gonna add a "depth" argument soon so that you can just use the parent director you instead

[notwaldorf]

Well, that's not the problem, this is the problem: https://github.com/notwaldorf/tiny-care-terminal/blob/master/standup-helper.sh#L33

the shell script takes "everything that wasn't passed to -d or -m" to be directory names, and because they're space separated, it's fine. If they're separated by a different delimiter, I have to do a bash hack to get around that (like split the string. everything in bash is a hack 😅)

[email protected] now has a TTC_REPOS_DEPTH argument, so I'm going to optimistically mark this as closed (otherwise i'd have to switch from spaces to commas and break all the existing users 😭)

Thanks, I think that will help a lot of people!

In my case, the space is quite early on in the path. It looks something like this:
/home/wilhelm/Google Drive/folder/folder/folder/folder/actualProject

So I think it would take forever to check every folder in my Google Drive for .git directories.

If a character that's typically not allowed in paths was to be the delimiter, would that still break things for existing users? Maybe a character like |

[notwaldorf]

Oh! Good news: this is only broken because I wrote dumb code to pass to the internal bash script, and the instructions actually tell you to use commas and not spaces.

[wilhelmklopp]

ooo 😁

To clarify: I meant keep commas as the delimiter in the environment variable, but use a more sepcial character to split here:

tiny-care-terminal/config.js

Line 14 in 0e7d6ae

repos: (process.env.TTC_REPOS || '~/Code').replace(/,/g, ' '),

same problem here, a work around was i made a symlink that had no spaces link to my directory with spaces and used that symlink in the TTC_REPOS
