[PATCH 3/4] rev-parse test: use test_cmp instead of "test" builtin

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Use test_cmp instead of passing two command substitutions to the
"test" builtin.  This way:

 - when tests fail, they can print a helpful diff if run with
   "--verbose"

 - the argument order "test_cmp expect actual" feels natural,
   unlike test <known> = <unknown> that seems a little backwards

 - the exit status from invoking git is checked, so if rev-parse
   starts segfaulting then the test will notice and fail

Use a custom function for this instead of test_cmp_rev to emphasize
that we are testing the output from "git rev-parse" with certain
arguments, not checking that the revisions are equal in abstract.
