That's understandable because valgrind > support is added (in 4e1be63) 10 months before bin-wrappers (in > ea92519). But it's probably better that we inject valgrind command > from inside bin-wrappers script, the same way we inject gdb, I think. I had the same thought and even started on a patch, but it doesn't quite work. The bin-wrappers are all about intercepting what goes into the user's $PATH, and pointing our libexec dir at the main build. So we have "git" and "git-upload-pack" in bin-wrappers, but not "git-log". Whereas the valgrind code wants to intercept _all_ of the test script's invocations of git, including ones spawned by scripts, other git commands, etc. So conceptually, it wants to intercept $GIT_EXEC_PATH. -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
