I find this in t/lib-httpd.sh:
set_askpass() {
>"$TRASH_DIRECTORY/askpass-query" &&
echo "$1" >"$TRASH_DIRECTORY/askpass-user" &&
echo "$2" >"$TRASH_DIRECTORY/askpass-pass"
}
and expect_askpass peeks at askpass-query to see if Git asked the
right questions.
I think askpass-query is cleared here because the author of the test
suite expected that the helpers are used in such a way that you
always (1) set-askpass once, (2) run a Git command that asks
credentials, (3) use expect_askpass to validate and do these three
steps as a logical unit?
That "clone" the test expects to fail does ask the credential, so
even though the test does not check if the "clone" asked the right
question, it finishes the three-step logical unit, and then you need
to clear askpass-query.
It may have been cleaner if you had clear_askpass_query helper that
is called (1) at the beginning of set_askpass instead of this manual
clearing, (2) at the end of expect_askpass, as the exchange has been
tested already at that point, and (3) in place of expect_askpass if
you choose not to call it (e.g. this place, instead of the second
set_askpass, you would say clear_askpass_query), perhaps, but I do
know if that is worth it.
