The command
git show -s --format=%ci HEAD
may output more than one trailing newline under some circumstances (git version 1.8.3.1 if the commit is a merge). This leads to invalid C-code in epicsVCS.h if not all trailing newlines are removed. The default forchomp
is to remove only one newline, unless one sets$/='';
first. https://perldoc.perl.org/functions/chomp.
