openssh bugs - Feb 2020 - [Bug 3120] New: Codespell report for "openssh" (on fossies.org)

https://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3120

            Bug ID: 3120
           Summary: Codespell report for "openssh" (on fossies.org)
           Product: Portable OpenSSH
           Version: 8.2p1
          Hardware: Other
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: trivial
          Priority: P5
         Component: Miscellaneous
          Assignee: unassigned-bugs at mindrot.org
          Reporter: Jens.Schleusener at fossies.org

The FOSS server fossies.org offers a new feature "Source code
misspelling reports":

 https://fossies.org/features.html#codespell

Such reports are normally only generated on request, but for testing
purposes I have as Fossies administrator now done a "codespell" check
for the "openssh" (portability) project:

 https://fossies.org/linux/misc/openssh/codespell.html

That version-independent URL should redirect always to the last report
(if available), so currently to

 https://fossies.org/linux/misc/openssh-8.2p1.tar.gz/codespell.html

Although some obviously wrong matches ("false positives") are already
filtered (ignored) please inform me if you find more of them so that I
can force a new improved check if applicable.

Ok, most of the found errors are "only" in the ChangeLog file and some
spelling suggestions are worth discussing, but maybe it's nevertheless
meaningful to correct the few remaining ones.

Just for information there are also two supplemental pages

 https://fossies.org/linux/misc/openssh/codespell_conf.html

showing some used "codespell" configurations,

 https://fossies.org/linux/misc/openssh/codespell_fps.html

showing all resulting obvious "false positives".

Thanks for passing this on. I've fixed most of the reported mistakes.

Most of the remaining ones are in the Changelog, which is automatically
generated from git commit messages and not suitable for editing.

The other few are in license text that we can't change without
permission from the authors. I don't plan to chase these up either -
the hassle/payoff ratio is just too low.

If it's possible, it would be great if future reports excluded
ChangeLog.

So now a new codespell run was done for the current "openssh-portable"
GitHub master version. The result is available via s special test
folder that isn't fully integrated into the Fossies system and should
not be accessible by search engines:


https://fossies.org/linux/test/openssh-portable-master.tar.gz/codespell.html

That link should always redirect to the last analyzed GitHub master
version (if a report is available), so currently to


https://fossies.org/linux/test/openssh-portable-master.955c4cf.200313.tar.gz/codespell.html

ChangeLog files are generally "problematic" and the file was included
just to point the spelling errors (it's now excluded. Also excluded was
the file openbsd-compat/libressl-api-compat.c since it contains three
of the mentioned errors in the license text.

If a new run seems meaningful it can be requested by a short according
mail to <info at fossies.org>.

Thanks, but you were a little too fast for me. I had not synched the
spelling fixes in the OpenBSD tree to Portable OpenSSH. I have done so
now and most of the ones listed there should be fixed.

No problem, a new run is done and the URL


https://fossies.org/linux/test/openssh-portable-master.tar.gz/codespell.html

redirects now to  


https://fossies.org/linux/test/openssh-portable-master.0eaca93.200314.tar.gz/codespell.html

Wow, no spelling error are found now by codespell!
