[PATCH] Fix false positives in t3404 due to SHELL=/bin/false

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



If the user's shell in NSS passwd is /bin/false (eg as found during Gentoo's
package building), the git-rebase exec tests will fail, because they call
$SHELL around the command, and in the existing testcase, $SHELL was not being
cleared sufficently.

This lead to false positive failures of t3404 on systems where the package
build user was locked down as noted above.
