The patch below fixes this case. Hmm. Isn't t3900 already broken, even without this patch? It does something like this: foo() { test_expect_success 'bar' 'echo $3' } That can't possibly access the third positional parameter of foo, as we are already inside the test_expect_success function, no matter what functions we call after that. If there is any regression here, it would be that we used to get the positional parameters of test_run_, and now we get them from test_eval_. So accessing "$2" used to get us $expecting_failure, but now gets nothing. I doubt it matters, and tests would be insane to rely on something internal like that. If it did, the right fix would be: - test_eval_ "$1" + test_eval_ "$@" in test_run_. So I don't see a problem in Jonathan's patches. But clearly t3900 is poorly written and should be fixed.

I don't see how it's actually doing anything. It makes us call: git commit --squash HEAD~1 -m squash_message instead of just: git commit --squash HEAD~1 but then we never actually check to see that the included message becomes part of the squashed commit, anyway. Also, a side note. These tests put their shell snippet inside single quotes. And then access the variables sometimes directly (assuming they are left unchanged inside the test functions), and sometimes using single quotes. Which actually places them outside the snippet's single quotes, and expands them in place. Which happens to be OK because they don't contain any spaces, but would otherwise pass extra arguments to test_expect_success. So it's not a bug, but it does look unintentional and poor style. Anyway. Your patch is fine and sufficient to solve the problem. Those were all just thoughtst I had while trying to figure out what the test was actually trying to do. -Peff -- 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
