The next person who adds new test after this test will be surprised that his/her test does not start at the top-level of the test/trash directory, but in the "original" subdirectory. And no, adding "&& cd .." at the end of this &&-cascade is *not* a fix---when any of the steps chained with && fails, such a "we have moved the process to a wrong place, so let's move back with 'cd ..'" will not get executed. > + cd original && > + git init unborn && > + git remote add unborn-namespaced "ext::git --namespace=namespace %s unborn" && > + test_must_fail git push unborn-namespaced HEAD:master && > + test_config -C unborn receive.denyCurrentBranch updateInstead && > + git push unborn-namespaced HEAD:master > +' What is often done to fix is to execute what you need to run in a subshell, e.g. test_expect_success 'demonstration' ' ( cd original && git init unborn && ... test_must_fail git push ... && git -C unborn config ... && git push ... ) ' The use of "git config" instead of "test_config" in the above illustration is deliberate---the latter does not work and should not be used inside a subshell. > + > test_done
