Dear diary, on Sun, Jul 02, 2006 at 11:33:47PM CEST, I got a letter where Junio C Hamano <junkio@xxxxxxx> said that... > I tried this: > > 0. check out the branch that has the Perly git ("pu"). build > and install normally to have a perfectly working version > accessible on your usual $PATH. > > 1. apply the patch [1] below to make it use "use lib" instead of > "unshift". > > 2. break perl/Git.pm being built to pretend we introduced a bug > in the work in progress by applying the patch [2] below. > > 3. without installing the broken Git.pm, run "make test", and > see a test that uses "git pull" and needs to create a true > merge succeed. It tells me that everything including > perl/Git.pm is GOOD, and I'd find the breakage only after > installing and running the test again. So, just to clarify and make sure we understand each other perfectly, you claim that when skipping (1), (3) _does_ FAIL for you? Because it really doesn't for me and I can't see how could it ever fail without installing the broken version first. -- Petr "Pasky" Baudis Stuff: http://pasky.or.cz/ Snow falling on Perl.
