This is indeed a problem... Perhaps something along these lines (generic boilerplate for any single-quote fixes, that should be adjusted for the actual fix): In the test scripts, the recommended style is, e.g.: test_expect_success 'name' ' multi-line test goes here ' When using this style, any single quote in the multi-line test section is actually closing the lone single quotes that surround it. To avoid confusion, minimize and/or eliminate the use of single quotes here. Chris
