Hi Junio, I actually tested v1.7.12-rc0-22-gcdd159b, thus: $ time $(GIT_SKIP_TESTS='t0061.3 t0070.3 t9010 t9300' make test > test-outp1 2>&1) real 137m11.901s user 118m55.071s sys 59m50.695s $ the result, ignoring the explicity skipped tests (nothing new there), was three additional failures: t1100.5, t7502.21 and t7810.59 I will be sending a patch to fix t1100.5 (patch #1). The failure in t7502-commit.sh seems to be the result of commit 8c5b1ae1 ("ident: reject bogus email addresses with IDENT_STRICT", 24-05-2012) being more strict with non fully qualified hostnames. I get the "tell me who you are" message and the error: fatal: unable to auto-detect email address (got 'ramsay@toshiba.(none)') However, I *think* I saw that Jeff has submitted a fix for this already. Unfortunately, I was unable to reproduce the final failure in t7810-grep.sh. I tried, among other things, to provoke a failure thus: $ for i in $(seq 100); do > if ! ./t7810-grep.sh -i -v; then > break; > fi > done $ but, apart from chewing on the cpu for about 50 minutes, it didn't result in a failure. :( However, after looking at test 59, it seems to me to be a stale (redundant) test. So, patch #2 removes that test! :-D [I wish I could reproduce the failure because I don't like not knowing why it failed, but ...] ATB, Ramsay Jones -- 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
