Thanks for testing it out. What version of Windows were you running on? With cygwin or without? I tested previously on cygwin (I think on Windows Server 2012??) and got all the tests passing there, eventually[1]. I'm not sure I can find access to any other Windows systems, but I'd be happy to take a look if I can. [1] https://public-inbox.org/git/CABPp-BEJ6-mrY0OCz1WWetrtG_iehKzOdCUOn_PUuKVywaU9Zw@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/ The need to backslash escape a caret for a literal match when it appears in the middle of the string makes sense. Thanks for sending along the patch. Would you prefer I squashed it into the series (still sitting in 'pu'), or keep your patch separate? I'm fine with either, I'm just unsure the protocol here. > But it still does not pass the test suite because the system does not > like file names such as y/c~HEAD: > > ++ grep 'Refusing to lose dirty file at z/c' out > Refusing to lose dirty file at z/c > ++ grep -q stuff x/b y/a y/c y/c~HEAD z/c > grep: y/c: Invalid request code > error: last command exited with $?=2 > not ok 94 - 11d-check: Avoid losing not-uptodate with rename + D/F conflict This is exceptionally odd. The actual line from the testsuite was grep -q stuff */* which suggests your shell is both doing the pathname expansion and treating the resulting filename not as a string but as something to be interpreted that happens to have some kind of special characters/commands, and then choking on the result. Super weird. I could probably work around this by just running grep -q stuff z/c I think I had the asterisks in there because I was thinking in terms of directory rename detection potentially moving the file, but that's probably just overkill. Does the test pass for you with that change? (If so, there are also two similar tests that I'd need to make similar changes to.) However, although that might fix this particular case, it suggests some fragility of the tests and filenames for whatever system you happen to be using. merge-recursive.c's unique_path has created filenames with tilde's in them for many years, it may just be that I'm the first to use the resulting file in combination with grep to ensure the contents are as we expect. There may be other issues lurking (even if not yet appearing in the testsuite) for your system when dealing with merge conflicts.
