Actually that was half on purpose. You will notice I did not document that option, as it is intended only to be used to distinguish between the parallel runs implemented in [6/6]. Those parallel runs look something like [4] ok 1 - plain [4] ok 2 - plain nested in bare [...snip until othes catch up...] [4] ok 33 - re-init to update git link [4] ok 34 - re-init to move gitdir [3] ok 1 - plain [2] ok 1 - plain [4] ok 35 - re-init to move gitdir symlink [4] # still have 2 known breakage(s) [4] # passed all remaining 33 test(s) [4] 1..35 [3] ok 2 - plain nested in bare It's invalid TAP no matter what: there are N plans and the ok/not ok lines from N runs all intermingled. So I'd rather not even pretend that it is valid in any way. -- Thomas Rast trast@{inf,student}.ethz.ch -- 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
