Subject: cmd/link: fix -X importpath.name=value when import path needs escaping
X-Git-Tag: go1.8beta1~462
X-Git-Url: http://www.git.cypherpunks.su/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=1773cdd0811620fd59b44136a77ecef4d728ae18;p=gostls13.git

cmd/link: fix -X importpath.name=value when import path needs escaping

After the final slash, dots are %-escaped when constructing a symbol name,
so that in the actual symbol table, the import path githost.com/my.git
becomes githost.com/my%2egit. In this case, -X githost.com/my.git.Value=foo
needs to set githost.com/my%2egit.Value. This is a detail of the object format
and not something users should know or depend on, so apply the escaping
as needed.

People who have run across this already and figured out and started using
the escaped forms with -X will find those forms not working anymore.
That is, -X githost.com/my%2egit.Value=foo is the Go 1.7 workaround but
will stop working in Go 1.8 once this proper fix is in place.
People who need to keep scripts working with older and newer versions of Go
can safely pass both forms, and one will be ignored:

    -X githost.com/my%2egit.Value=foo -X githost.com/my.git.Value=foo

Fixes #16710.
