[PATCH 1/2] submodule tests: don't use itself as a submodule

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

 



In reality nobody would run "git submodule add ./. <submodule-path>"
to add the repository to itself as a submodule as this comes with some
nasty surprises, such as infinite recursion when cloning that repository.
However we do this all the time in the test suite, because most of the
time this was the most convenient way to test a very specific thing
for submodule behavior.

This provides an easier way to have submodules in tests, by just setting
TEST_CREATE_SUBMODULE to a non empty string, similar to
TEST_NO_CREATE_REPO.

Make use of it in those tests that add a submodule from ./. except for
the occurrence in create_lib_submodule_repo as there it seems we craft
a repository deliberately for both inside as well as outside use.

The name "pretzel.[non]bare" was chosen deliberate to not introduce
more strings to the test suite containing "sub[module]" as searching for
"sub" already yields a lot of hits from different contexts. "pretzel"
doesn't occur in the test suite yet, so it is a good candidate for
a potential remote for a submodule.
