When a file has some low ascii-characters, it will not be detected correctly as a plain text file. The upload will not success in that case. There are some files in the php sources that have these low ascii characters present so patches on those files cannot be uploaded correctly. Test script: --------------- The files: ext/standard/tests/strings/strip_tags_variation5.phpt ext/standard/tests/strings/strip_tags_variation8.phpt ext/standard/tests/strings/strip_tags_variation9.phpt have some low ascii characters: ^K and ^L. Because of this, linux' "file" command detect those files "incorrectly": jthijssen@debian-jth:~/php-src-5.3$ file ext/standard/tests/strings/strip_tags_variation5.phpt ext/standard/tests/strings/strip_tags_variation5.phpt: data jthijssen@debian-jth:~/php-src-5.3$ file ext/standard/tests/strings/strip_tags_variation4.phpt ext/standard/tests/strings/strip_tags_variation4.phpt: ASCII C program text Expected result: ---------------- The patch should be added to the bug Actual result: -------------- The bug database reports an incorrect filetype (detected: application/octet-stream) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=53703&edit=1
