I have a script that at one point prints to a file as follows:
The idea is to print to a hidden directory .mydir in my home directory. I've already sanitized the inputs and $1 is in the format
and $2 is some user input.
When I run this on my Mac, there's no problem and it works great. When I upload it to the system where I eventually intend to use it, however, it doesn't work quite right. It writes the correct user input to a file located at:
where my_present_directory is wherever I upload the script file to. It's actually making a directory called "~".
Any ideas on how to get this work work as intended?

Say you have this numeric variable that can be set by the user but you never want it to leave a certain range when it gets printed. How could you use parameter expansion such that it will never expand outside of that boundary? Thanks

git-sh-i18n
GIT-SH-I18N(1) Git Manual GIT-SH-I18N(1)NAME
git-sh-i18n - Git's i18n setup code for shell scripts
SYNOPSIS
. "$(git --exec-path)/git-sh-i18n"
DESCRIPTION
This is not a command the end user would want to run. Ever. This documentation is meant for people who are studying the Porcelain-ish
scripts and/or are writing new ones.
The 'git sh-i18n scriptlet is designed to be sourced (using .) by Git's porcelain programs implemented in shell script. It provides
wrappers for the GNU gettext and eval_gettext functions accessible through the gettext.sh script, and provides pass-through fallbacks on
systems without GNU gettext.
FUNCTIONS
gettext
Currently a dummy fall-through function implemented as a wrapper around printf(1). Will be replaced by a real gettext implementation in
a later version.
eval_gettext
Currently a dummy fall-through function implemented as a wrapper around printf(1) with variables expanded by the git-sh-
i18n--envsubst(1) helper. Will be replaced by a real gettext implementation in a later version.
