[Phpmyadmin-devel] Newbie Doubt : How to upload the patch
by ayush choubey 07 Apr '13

07 Apr '13

Hey Guys, I was going through some bug report and saw this one #3865 https://sourceforge.net/p/phpmyadmin/bugs/3865/ which i thought can be fixed by me. So i added few lines of code in my phpmyadmin(running on localhost) and that fix seems to be working just fine. Now i wanted to add that patch in the original phpmyadmin(the one in github) but i don't know the procedure. As i am pretty new to github and patching bugs(it's the first fix ), so i don't know the procedure of uploading the patch. In my earlier attempts i tried cloning phpmyadmin frfound can be fixedom github using git clone git@github.com:phpmyadmin/phpmyadmin.git but then a message comes that server has refused my connection. So, then i cloned using https://github.com/phpmyadmin/phpmyadmin.git but it seems like it gives me Read only Access. So i would like to know how could i upload that patch. Do i have to take some kind of permission?

[Phpmyadmin-devel] Table Search: expected behavior
by Kasun Chathuranga 06 Apr '13

06 Apr '13

Hi all, I'm trying to fix bug #3865[1] and I have some queries regarding the expected behavior that I'd like to get clarified. MySQL LIKE clause takes a regular expression as its argument[2]. In the table search interface phpMyAdmin facilitate querying a field with a LIKE clause by letting the user select the option from a drop down. So I'd like to know whether phpMyAdmin should consider the text entered by the user to be a regular expression (and pass it as it is) or consider it to be the text to match (and do the necessary escaping)? If we are to escape the user entered text following are some of the replacements that should be done % => \% _ => \_ \ => \\ (at the end of the text) or \\\\ (any where else in the text) \n => \\n If we escape the user entered text, user cannot query with MySQL wildcards % and _, limiting the full power of MySQL pattern matching. I would be grateful if you could clarify the expected behavior. Thanks in advance. -- Regards Kasun Chathuranga [1] http://sourceforge.net/p/phpmyadmin/bugs/3865/ [2] http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/string-comparison-functions.html#ope…

Hi all, I'd like to introduce myself to the dev community. I am Kasun Chathuranga, an undergraduate from Sri Lanka and I am interested in taking part in the 2013 edition of GSoC under phpMyAdmin.

As per the requirement I have started working on a bug and I hope to submit some patches very soon. I will write again in case I need any help with my bug fixing. I guess that is it for now :) Thanks. -- Regards Kasun Chathuranga

[Phpmyadmin-devel] about spacing around operators
by Marc Delisle 02 Apr '13

02 Apr '13

Hi, I was looking at [0] to find the requirement about spacing around operators, to no avail. No more luck in [1]. I prefer this requirement but we should mention it somewhere.

[Phpmyadmin-devel] The branch bug fix should go to
by Kasun Chathuranga 02 Apr '13

02 Apr '13

Hi all, I'm currently looking into the bug #3800 ( http://sourceforge.net/p/phpmyadmin/bugs/3800/) The bug is reported to be in 3.5.6 version and while going through the wiki page on GIT ( http://wiki.phpmyadmin.net/pma/Git#Working_with_branches) I noticed that the fix should go into some QA branch. However seeing that version 4.0 is in beta, I'd like to know whether the fix should still go to the QA branch. Will there be any more releases on 3.5 branch? Thanks -- Regards, Kasun Chathuranga
