Sounds good enough for any practical need I can forsee ;-) Thanks. > diff --git a/t/t0040-parse-options.sh b/t/t0040-parse-options.sh > index 800b3ea5f5..cebc77fab0 100755 > --- a/t/t0040-parse-options.sh > +++ b/t/t0040-parse-options.sh > @@ -48,6 +48,12 @@ Standard options > -q, --quiet be quiet > --expect <string> expected output in the variable dump > > +Alias > + -A, --alias-source <string> > + get a string > + -Z, --alias-target <string> > + get a string > + > EOF This is not a new problem per-se, as there already is a line before the precontext of this hunk that shares the same issue, but to prevent future problems, I am very much tempted to apply the attached on top. -- >8 -- Subject: t0040: protect lines that are indented by spaces This block is byte-for-byte identical expected output, that contains a few lines that are indented in many spaces, which makes "git diff --check" unhappy and will break the test when "git am --whitespace=fix" is allowed to "correct" them. Protect the left edge with a marker character, and strip it with sed, which is used as a standard way to deal with this issue in our test suite.
