Let me repeat what you said so I know how to improve the patch: @Junio: > Perhaps end each sentence with a full-stop? I should end each sentence in the *log* message with "." (rather than the translatable strings in the patch) > Shouldn't this rather be like so instead? > if test_i18ngrep ! "invalid gitfile format" .err ... > These two ones want to be written The standard negation form is: test_i18ngrep ! but I should leave the `!` in front of `test_i18ngrep` in this particular case @Jeff: > we may want to avoid this anti-pattern Current state of these tests is wrong and I should rework them. Here is what I intend to do: 1. Fix the commit message 2. Check whether I can get the tests in t0002-gitfile.sh to the standard `test_i18ngrep !` negative (i.e. without using `if`) 3. Post and ask for feedback again Kind regards: al_shopov
