Before we switched to one big test-tool binary, if you forgot the name of a tool, you could use tab-completion in the shell to get a hint. But these days, all you get is: $ t/helper/test-tool approxidate fatal: There is no test named 'approxidate' and you're stuck reading the source code to find it. Let's print a list of the available tools in this case. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@xxxxxxxx> --- Not really user-facing, but this bugged me enough earlier to write the patch. ;) Some of the individual tools have nice help, too (try "t/helper/test-tool date", which shows the approxidate command I was looking for), but some of them could probably stand to improve their friendliness (try "t/helper/test-tool config"). I think it's fine for people to improve them over time if and when they get annoyed.
This will improve contributors' lives! Thanks. Reviewed-by: Derrick Stolee <dstolee@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
