Then again, it's probably nicer to simply pretend that we didn't see that invalid configuration. Also, to avoid breaking the '--log=-1' test, either drop the test altogether or use something like this: Signed-off-by: Ramkumar Ramachandra <artagnon@xxxxxxxxx> diff --git a/t/t6200-fmt-merge-msg.sh b/t/t6200-fmt-merge-msg.sh index 395c23e..3bfdebc 100755 --- a/t/t6200-fmt-merge-msg.sh +++ b/t/t6200-fmt-merge-msg.sh @@ -236,7 +236,7 @@ test_expect_success '--log=0 disables shortlog' ' test_cmp expected actual ' -test_expect_success '--log=-1 does something sane' ' +test_expect_code 128 '--log=-1 errors out' ' cat >expected <<-EOF && Merge branch ${apos}left${apos} @@ -248,8 +248,7 @@ test_expect_success '--log=-1 does something sane' ' Common #1 EOF - git fmt-merge-msg --log=-1 <.git/FETCH_HEAD >actual && - test_cmp expected actual + git fmt-merge-msg --log=-1 <.git/FETCH_HEAD >actual ' test_expect_success 'fmt-merge-msg -m' ' -- 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
