Review backlog (correctness): No way to express a literal backslash followed by a separator comma #357

Closed

Description

@hivecommons-hive

Blocked on PR #356. This finding came from reviewing PR #356 and is about code that PR is changing. Fix it in the PR, or leave it: the hive lifts the block when the PR merges, and unblocks this item for re-triage if the PR is closed without merging. Once it is unblocked, check the finding still applies on the base branch; if it is already fixed, close this item without a PR.

Filed from an out-of-scope finding in the Hive review of PR #356.

PR: #356 (#356)
Perspective: correctness
Severity: low (P3)
Evidence: src/resolver.ts:35 (

.split(/(?<!\\),/)
)
Finding: No way to express a literal backslash followed by a separator comma

splitUnescaped splits on /(?<!\),/ and then replaces every \, with ,. A value whose piece legitimately ends in a backslash (e.g. Windows path C:\dir\,D:\x) was previously split into two iterations and is now joined into one, and there is no \\ escape to recover the old meaning. Consistent with #355's stated design (only values containing \, change behaviour) and rare in practice, so advisory only.
