Subject: git-mktag: be more careful in reading the input.
X-Git-Tag: v0.99~419
X-Git-Url: http://git.tremily.us/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b97e3dfa7699776cd4bcc1a712e884992d757f40;p=git.git

git-mktag: be more careful in reading the input.

Instead of always assuming it can be read with a single
read() system call, loop around properly.

Pointed out by Pasky, but I ended up implementing it differently
from his suggested patch.
