[PATCH 00/14] Add submodule test harness

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

 



This is the series I sought feedback for some time ago in gmane/$245048. It
took longer than I expected to finish this series because I had to diagnose
the test failures I saw with some of the ten commands I added since then.
They boiled down to four different inconsistencies in Git's handling of new
or removed submodules. Sometimes no empty directory is created for a new
submodule. stash and cherry-pick seem to use wrong submodule ignore settings
("all" instead of "dirty"), so they overlook submodule changes. And merge
behaves strange when a submodule is removed, as it tries to merge new tracked
files with those remaining from the submodule. This series only documents
these issues (which most probably didn't cause any real world problems until
now because adding and removing submodules wasn't well supported anyway).

The first patch adds a simple helper function to the test lib which makes
it easier to test for an empty submodule directory.

The second patch contains the heavy lifting, it adds the test framework for
switching submodules. Currently only transitions without merge conflicts are
tested for, I intend to add others producing merge conflicts in a follow-up
series.

The other twelve patches use the framework to test all relevant work tree
manipulating commands. In addition to the two general problems documented
in the second patch some patches add known failures for problems of some
commands/actions to be fixed in later patches.

The only work tree changing command I didn't cover here is checkout-index, as
that updates the work tree to the content of the index but doesn't remove any
formerly tracked files, which means it doesn't do a full transition from one
commit to another. If I overlooked another command, please speak up so I can
include it too.
