[PATCH 5/6] t1500: avoid setting environment variables outside of tests

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Ideally, each test should be responsible for setting up state it needs
rather than relying upon transient global state. Toward this end, teach
test_rev_parse() to accept a "-g <dir>" option to allow callers to
specify the value of the GIT_DIR environment variable explicitly, and
take advantage of this new option to avoid polluting the global scope
with GIT_DIR assignments.

Regarding the implementation: Typically, tests avoid polluting the
global state by wrapping transient environment variable assignments
within a subshell, however, this technique can not be used here since
test_config() and test_unconfig() need to know GIT_DIR, as well, but
neither function can be used within a subshell. Consequently, GIT_DIR is
cleared manually via sane_unset().
