Ah, I see. I am not in fact running apache. If you do not set SVN_HTTPD_PORT (which I don't), then lib-git-svn.sh's start_httpd silently returns success without bothering to setup the apache server at all. And yet the rest of the tests run to completion just fine. It looks like setting this variable is a way to say "run the same set of tests, but do it over svn-over-httpd instead of svn's direct filesystem access". Setting SVN_HTTPD_PORT does cause the tests to fail for me. I don't know how important it is to run these tests over httpd. If so, it would be nice to do something like lib-httpd does: try the apache setup by default, and if it fails, gracefully skip the tests (or fallback to the non-httpd version). I'm also not sure if there's value in running both the httpd and local-filesystem forms of the test. IOW, should we be factoring out the tests and having two separate scripts that set $svnrepo as appropriate, and then runs the tests? -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
