Consolidating the logic to set necessary prerequisites used in
various scripts is very good, but I am not sure adding them to
test-lib and run them unconditionally is a good idea. SYMLINKS is
used by 47 among 595 tests, which is common enough, but the new ones
are not common enough. I do not think we want to create a temporary
"junk" dir, two temporary "camelcase" files, read and compare them,
when nobody in the script cares.
We do not have to split them into separate include files, though, in
order to avoid such waste. Instead, you can make the logic to set
prerequisite conditional inside test-lib.sh and update the users.
Something like:
(in t/test-lib.sh)
case ",$TEST_WANT_PREREQ," in
*,CASE_INSENSITIVE_FS,*)
mkdir junk &&
echo good >junk/CamelCase &&
echo bad >junk/camelcase &&
test "$(cat junk/CamelCase)" == good ||
test_set_prereq CASE_INSENSITIVE_FS
rm -fr junk
esac
(at the beginning of t/t0003-attributes.sh)
#!/bin/sh
test_description=gitattributes
TEST_WANT_PREREQ=CASE_INSENSITIVE_FS,SYMLINKS
. ./test-lib.sh
Thanks.
