But aren't we actually guaranteed that it will fail, since the index does not match the work tree? Meanwhile, what was the point of refreshing the index like this? I would guess it was to make sure that files that match the work tree are marked as matching, but if so, this is not guaranteed if update-index --refresh exits early. Adding -q would fix that. Why redirect to /dev/null? I would think the extra output would be useful while debugging with -v. --- diff --git a/t/t4002-diff-basic.sh b/t/t4002-diff-basic.sh index 340aa7d..9fb8ca0 100755 --- a/t/t4002-diff-basic.sh +++ b/t/t4002-diff-basic.sh @@ -206,7 +206,7 @@ test_expect_success \ git read-tree $tree_A && git checkout-index -f -a && git read-tree --reset $tree_O && - test_might_fail git update-index --refresh >/dev/null && + test_must_fail git update-index --refresh -q && git diff-files >.test-a && cmp_diff_files_output .test-a .test-recursive-OA' @@ -216,7 +216,7 @@ test_expect_success \ git read-tree $tree_B && git checkout-index -f -a && git read-tree --reset $tree_O && - test_might_fail git update-index --refresh >/dev/null && + test_must_fail git update-index --refresh -q && git diff-files >.test-a && cmp_diff_files_output .test-a .test-recursive-OB' @@ -226,7 +226,7 @@ test_expect_success \ git read-tree $tree_B && git checkout-index -f -a && git read-tree --reset $tree_A && - test_might_fail git update-index --refresh >/dev/null && + test_must_fail git update-index --refresh -q && git diff-files >.test-a && cmp_diff_files_output .test-a .test-recursive-AB' -- -- 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
