And if you really want to verify that the command does nothing, I guess you will have to use test-chmtime =123456789 file && test_must_fail git stash apply stash@{0} bar && test 123456789 = $(test-chmtime -v +0 file | sed 's/[^0-9].*$//') > @@ -97,6 +103,10 @@ test_expect_success 'stash drop complains of extra options' ' > test_must_fail git stash drop --foo > ' > > +test_expect_success 'stash drop complains with too many refs' ' > + test_must_fail git stash drop stash@{1} stash@{2} I wonder whether you might want to verify that the error message is printed, e.g. via test_must_fail git stash drop stash@{1} stash@{2} 2>err && test_i18ngrep "Too many" err Also, since the added tests look very similar, it might make sense to use a loop (with fixed revision arguments).
