It's unclear to me what this patch is for & why it's needed. Yesterday in your v2 27/27 series you sent a different one that changed this from s/master/main/g: https://lore.kernel.org/git/b8fa037791683b50c3efb01aa6ac0d3f7b888a2b.1605629548.git.gitgitgadget@xxxxxxxxx/ That's on top of "next", but this one is on "master", the two would conflict, and the 02/27 one seems like the right thing to do. > Therefore, the actual branch name does not matter at all.

I.e. what the test is doing is producing intentionally broken config, and asserting that we don't read it at an early stage. Therefore if we regressed and started doing that the test wouldn't catch it, because the default branch name is "master", or "main" if/when that refs.c change lands, neither of which is "topic". Maybe I'm missing something but it seems 58ebccb478 ("t1309: use short branch name in includeIf.onbranch test", 2019-08-06) and your own 85fe0e800c ("config: work around bug with includeif:onbranch and early config", 2019-07-31) which added the test support reading. > Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@xxxxxx> > --- > t1309: use a non-loaded branch name in the onbranch test cases > > Just something I stumbled over while working on > https://github.com/gitgitgadget/git/pull/762. > > Published-As: https://github.com/gitgitgadget/git/releases/tag/pr-791%2Fdscho%2Ft1309-onbranch-tests-v1 > Fetch-It-Via: git fetch https://github.com/gitgitgadget/git pr-791/dscho/t1309-onbranch-tests-v1 > Pull-Request: https://github.com/gitgitgadget/git/pull/791 > > t/t1309-early-config.sh | 4 ++-- > 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/t/t1309-early-config.sh b/t/t1309-early-config.sh > index ebb8e1aecb..b4a9158307 100755 > --- a/t/t1309-early-config.sh > +++ b/t/t1309-early-config.sh > @@ -91,11 +91,11 @@ test_expect_failure 'ignore .git/ with invalid config' ' > > test_expect_success 'early config and onbranch' ' > echo "[broken" >broken && > - test_with_config "[includeif \"onbranch:master\"]path=../broken" > + test_with_config "[includeif \"onbranch:topic\"]path=../broken" > ' > > test_expect_success 'onbranch config outside of git repo' ' > - test_config_global includeIf.onbranch:master.path non-existent && > + test_config_global includeIf.onbranch:topic.path non-existent && > nongit git help > ' > > > base-commit: e31aba42fb12bdeb0f850829e008e1e3f43af500
