Hrm, I thought it was explicitly mentioned there, but it says: - the first line of the commit message should be a short description and should skip the full stop Since your patch subject had a full stop I thought I'd mention it. DISCUSSION in git-commit(1) and gittutorial(7) mention 50 characters explicitly though, and a lot of tools that present commits in short form use that as a soft limit, e.g. gitweb and github. I'll submit a patch to SubmittingPatches citing the 50 char soft limit. >>> +test_expect_success 'log --grep option parsing' ' >>> + echo second >expect && >>> + git log -1 --pretty="tformat:%s" --grep sec >actual && >>> + test_cmp expect actual && >>> + test_must_fail git log -1 --pretty="tformat:%s" --grep >>> +' >> >> There's a lot of behavior change in this series, but only two small >> tests that I can see. > > 4, not 2.

Not for everything it seems, but the coverage is pretty good: http://v.nix.is/~avar/cover_db_html/parse-options-c.html http://v.nix.is/~avar/cover_db_html/test-parse-options-c.html Anyway. Regression tests can be added later, and I think this series is good enough for inclusion as-is. But option parsing has been a moving target in Git for a while now, and it's quite likely that this code will get rewritten down the line to use a new library that can parse all of Git's option syntax. More tests coverage would be valuable for catching regressions in such future rewrites. In general that's the main value, not making sure *your* code works, but that someone else doesn't break it. Anyway, here's how you can easily get almost complete coverage at almost no cost for this series, first make a t/lib-log.sh like this: #!/bin/sh log_expect_success() { desc=$1 text=$2 test_expect_success "Phony test with attached options: $1" "$2" mocked=$(echo "$2" | sed -r 's/([A-Za-z-]+)=/\1 /') test_expect_success "Phony test with detached options: $1" "$mocked" } Then just change the t4*log*.sh tests that aren't doing setup work (like git init) to use it: diff --git a/t/t4205-log-pretty-formats.sh b/t/t4205-log-pretty-formats.sh index cb9f2bd..7ccc4bb 100755 --- a/t/t4205-log-pretty-formats.sh +++ b/t/t4205-log-pretty-formats.sh @@ -20 +20 @@ test_expect_success 'set up basic repos' ' -test_expect_success 'alias builtin format' ' +log_expect_success 'alias builtin format' ' We'll be running tests twice, but it'll catch these at least: $ ack -h -i '(--[a-z-]+=)' --output '$1' t4*log*.sh | sort | uniq --abbrev= --author= --color= --decorate= --diff-filter= --format= --grep= --pretty= I can submit something like that later if I get around to it, or you can include it in your series if you want. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
