Very good. Yeah, I agree. Though it took me a moment to figure out why we were setting obj_context.mode but not obj_context.path; the reason is that "mode" is convenient to use as local storage, but "path" is not, because it is not a pointer but an array. So it would have been a little clearer to me as: const char *path; unsigned mode; ... if (!force_path) { /* use file info from sha1 lookup */ path = obj_context.path; mode = obj_context.mode; } else { /* use path requested by user, and assume it is a regular file */ path = force_path; mode = 0100644; } but I don't know if that is even worth a re-roll. > > +test_expect_success '----path=<path> complains without --textconv/--filters' ' > > + sha1=$(git rev-parse -q --verify HEAD:world.txt) && > > + test_must_fail git cat-file --path=hello.txt blob $sha1 >actual 2>err && > > + test ! -s actual && > > + grep "path.*needs.*filters" err > > +' > > This will need to become test_i18ngrep once the error message is > made translatable, but it is correct for now.

The whole thing looks good to me, except for the weird doubled "--" in the test description you quoted above. :) -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
