Just open a PR at https://github.com/gitgitgadget/git (all of the branches on gitster/git ar mirrored, including yours, I am sure, so you can target that branch specifically). Once you open a Pull Request, it will automatically build and run the test suite on Windows, macOS and Linux. You will see it in the "checks" section on the bottom. Example for my range-diff series: https://git-for-windows.visualstudio.com/git/_build/results?buildId=14279 For a quicker turnaround, you could add a commit that forces the `all` target in `t/Makefile` to run only your test. > When I do that, the relevant parts are: > > packet: fetch> have 9ab46928dc282aa09f4dbf96893a252e058e7e8e > packet: fetch> have dc824fafb05f3229aedf1f320bbe572e35364dfe > packet: fetch> have caef059de69917b9119176a11b88afcef769331d > packet: fetch> have 41bd8dc092ee110ba80e350a346ec507ab2e42a0 > packet: fetch> have e9a2c092a8e911567a377c881a7f6031e7f892ea > packet: fetch> done > > which is exactly as I (and the test) expect. > > Two possible reasons for the discrepancy that I can think of offhand are > that (1) my computer generates different commits from your test system, > and (2) the priority queue pops commits in a different order.

Like I said, you can use those "CI" builds, I think that would be more effective than if you waited for me to react, I am quite overwhelmed these days. Ciao, Dscho
