The commit-graph files are binary files, so they should not be compared with 'test_cmp', because that might cause issues like crashing[1] or infinite loop[2] on Windows, where 'test_cmp' is a shell function to deal with random LF-CRLF conversions[3]. Use 'test_cmp_bin' instead. 1 - b93e6e3663 (t5000, t5003: do not use test_cmp to compare binary files, 2014-06-04) 2 - f9f3851b4d (t9300: use test_cmp_bin instead of test_cmp to compare binary files, 2014-09-12) 3 - 4d715ac05c (Windows: a test_cmp that is agnostic to random LF <> CRLF conversions, 2013-10-26) Reviewed-by: Derrick Stolee <dstolee@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: SZEDER Gábor <szeder.dev@xxxxxxxxx> --- Same diff, updated commit message, including Derrick's Reviewed-by. t/t5318-commit-graph.sh | 4 ++-- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/t/t5318-commit-graph.sh b/t/t5318-commit-graph.sh index 4f17d7701e..1c148ebf21 100755 --- a/t/t5318-commit-graph.sh +++ b/t/t5318-commit-graph.sh @@ -254,9 +254,9 @@ test_expect_success 'check that gc computes commit-graph' ' git config gc.writeCommitGraph true && git gc && cp $objdir/info/commit-graph commit-graph-after-gc && - ! test_cmp commit-graph-before-gc commit-graph-after-gc && + ! test_cmp_bin commit-graph-before-gc commit-graph-after-gc && git commit-graph write --reachable && - test_cmp commit-graph-after-gc $objdir/info/commit-graph + test_cmp_bin commit-graph-after-gc $objdir/info/commit-graph ' # the verify tests below expect the commit-graph to contain -- 2.18.0.408.g42635c01bc
