I have no problem with that, but nor do I care too much about those programs (that is partially laziness, but also partially that I do not want to deal with introducing a regression). > - Do we want to do something similar to GIT_TEST_CREDENTIAL_HELPER? No, it is not a boolean. It is a bit of a hack, but it is meant to be used like: GIT_TEST_CREDENTIAL_HELPER=foo ./t0303-* to test some random git-credential-foo you have in your PATH. There is nothing to run "by default" there. It would be sensible to hook contrib/credential to it, though. > -- >8 -- > From: Jeff King <peff@xxxxxxxx> > Date: Mon, 10 Feb 2014 16:29:37 -0500 > Subject: [PATCH] tests: turn on network daemon tests by default > [...] > In addition, we are forgiving of common setup failures (e.g., you do > not have apache installed, or have an old version) when the > tri-state is "auto" (or empty), but report an error when it is You probably want to drop this "or empty" or change it to "or unset", given the magic we do with empty-but-set variables in this version. > --- > t/lib-git-daemon.sh | 8 ++++--- > t/lib-httpd.sh | 22 +++++++++---------- > t/test-lib-functions.sh | 58 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ > 3 files changed, 74 insertions(+), 14 deletions(-) Patch looks good to me. -Peff -- 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
