Wrong highlighting for minified css file #3058

Closed jcubic closed 8 years ago

jcubic commented 8 years ago

I have this minified file and the syntax highlighting is wrong, it display the whole thing as comment. I've tested the file in atom and it look correct.

Thanks for reporting this upstream @jcubic. When this is fixed in https://github.com/textmate/css.tmbundle/issues/26 we'll automatically update here.

There is nothing wrong with the grammar itself, the same code snippet parses in TextMate just fine. It appears that GitHub's parser has a time limit or length limit per-line before the parser cancels out and returns the line unparsed. So it's not actually matching as a comment it just never gets closed as that is on the line with the rest of the CSS.
