When the topic is on processing broken input, I do not think "It does make sense, though." is a primary point, unless the result expected by these tests is the only possibly sane outcome (otherwise, another equally-sensible output will be rejected as a test failure). So I agree that there is a possibility that we might regret having the diff output tested here in the future when somebody further works in the area. But let's not worry too much about it for now. Thanks; the solution seems reasonable. -- 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
