Although I do not think of any language with a syntax rule where that the overlong RIGHT_func... token is an illegal symbol offhand, this feels a bit _too_ specific to the C language. I would prefer something like this instead: * a test case must have one (and only one) line that contains "RIGHT" (all uppercase) and that line should become the hunk header for the test to succeed. * after the line that contains "RIGHT" token, there should be one (and only one) line that contains "ChangeMe". The test modifies this token to "IWasChanged", compares the original with the modified result, and expects the "RIGHT" token above appears on the hunk header. Also I would prefer not to require "enough filler", as we might want to enhance the logic to consider using a line in the pre-context as the hunk header in some cases, e.g. @@ ... @@ int RIGHT_function_hunk_header(void) int RIGHT_function_hunk_header(void) { - int ChangeME; + int IWasChanged; printf("Hello, world\n"); return 0; } @@ ... -- 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
