So ensure that we are working in a clean environment. "Enhance", like "Update" or "Change", is a more-or-less useless noiseword in a commit title; it does not say much about in what way it was enhanced. If we clarify the body of the explanation, a better word emerges, I would think. How about this instead? t3700: remove unwanted leftover files before running new tests When an earlier test that has prerequisite is skipped, files used by later tests may be left in the working tree in an unexpected state. For example, a test runs this sequence: echo foo >xfoo1 && chmod 755 xfoo1 to create an executable file xfoo1, expecting that xfoo1 does not exist before it runs in the test sequence. However, the absense of this file depends on "git reset --hard" done in an earlier test, that is skipped when SANITY prerequisite is not met, and worse yet, xfoo1 originally is created as a symbolic link, which means the chmod does not affect the modes of xfoo1 as this test expects. Fix this by starting the test with "rm -f xfoo1" to make sure the file is created from scratch, and do the same to other similar tests. > > Signed-off-by: Ingo Brückl <ib@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > --- > t/t3700-add.sh | 3 +++ > 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+) > > diff --git a/t/t3700-add.sh b/t/t3700-add.sh > index 4865304..494f5b8 100755 > --- a/t/t3700-add.sh > +++ b/t/t3700-add.sh > @@ -333,6 +333,7 @@ test_expect_success 'git add --dry-run --ignore-missing of non-existing file out > ' > > test_expect_success 'git add --chmod=+x stages a non-executable file with +x' ' > + rm -f foo1 && > echo foo >foo1 && > git add --chmod=+x foo1 && > case "$(git ls-files --stage foo1)" in > @@ -342,6 +343,7 @@ test_expect_success 'git add --chmod=+x stages a non-executable file with +x' ' > ' > > test_expect_success 'git add --chmod=-x stages an executable file with -x' ' > + rm -f xfoo1 && > echo foo >xfoo1 && > chmod 755 xfoo1 && > git add --chmod=-x xfoo1 && > @@ -354,6 +356,7 @@ test_expect_success 'git add --chmod=-x stages an executable file with -x' ' > test_expect_success POSIXPERM,SYMLINKS 'git add --chmod=+x with symlinks' ' > git config core.filemode 1 && > git config core.symlinks 1 && > + rm -f foo2 && > echo foo >foo2 && > git add --chmod=+x foo2 && > case "$(git ls-files --stage foo2)" in > -- > 2.9.2 -- 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
