Please don't merge it down for now. I've got a WIP resubmission of this which rewrites most of the later part of the series & addresses various issues raised. > * ab/perf-grep-threads (2018-01-04) 1 commit > (merged to 'next' on 2018-01-09 at 8fe1d71894) > + perf: amend the grep tests to test grep.threads > > More perf tests for threaded grep > > Will cook in 'next'. Re: the concern raised in xmqqa7xsaqki.fsf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx I think it makes sense to just document (and I can do that if you agree) that: test_expect_success SOME_PREREQ,$SOME_OTHER_PREREQ,$ANOTHER_ONE [...] Will work as far as prereqs goes even though the variables might be empty. It's much less verbose than the proposed alternative, and easy to support. > Will [cook in|merge to] 'next'. Refresh my memory, that means merge down post-2.16.0 at this point, right?
