This somehow misses the root (no pun intended) of the issue, to me. Perhaps: We `chmod 0` a file and test a case where git is unable to read it. If the test is run as root, the permissions are ignored, and our simulated read failure does not happen. The patch itself looks obviously correct. :) -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
