sh vs bash vs other shells

[cobacdavid]

Running script fails in my terminal running zsh:

$ gstatus              
/home/david/travail/david/production/info/scripts/gstatus: 34: function: not found
master
/home/david/travail/david/production/info/scripts/gstatus: 36: Syntax error: "}" unexpected

Nevertheless, it works fine in overiding shell:

$ zsh $(which gstatus) 
master  origin/master 

A  machines/socket/auto/socket.el

A  machines/socket/socket.pytxcode
A  machines/socket/socket.tex
A  machines/socket/socket.tex~

A  machines/socket/socket_ex1.py
A  machines/socket/socket_ex1.py~

This seems to be a POSIX-compliant issue with function as seen in this SO thread

I guess I should modify the shebang line in your script.

@cobacdavid There is still room for improvement (PR welcome 😄), but the script should be POSIX compliant now!
