Hello,
When I issue this command:
Write-Output "abc", "def" | grep abc
I get:
abc
(Note the extra spavce before abc)
When I issue this command:
Write-Output "abc", "def" | grep -v abc
I get:
def
The grep command is from Git Bash, the -v means exclude.
When grep matches the first line, a leading space is generated before the “abc”.
But very strangely, this command:
Write-Output "abc", "def" | grep abc | Format-Hex
Does not show any space…!
00 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 0A 0B 0C 0D 0E 0F
00000000 61 62 63 abc
Any clue what could cause the extra space when searchinf for “abc” ?
Thanks.
