This appears to be a case of mixing up the order in which these submissions came into place. js/t7900-protect-pwd-in-config-get added --fixed-value, but that was simultaneous with ds/maintenance-part-4 which added more tests in this vein without including --fixed-value. Looking at the history, ds/maintenance-part-4 doesn't have js/t7900-protect-pwd-in-config-get in its history, which is probably why you don't include --fixed-value in your patch. Perhaps it would be better to have a --fixed-value patch on top of the merge that combines the two topics? > -- >8 -- > Subject: [PATCH] maintenace: explicitly test value of maintenance.repo s/maintenace/maintenance/ > Make t7900-maintenance.sh easier to debug by printing and checking the > value of maintenance.repo rather than using a search string.

Here you mention --fixed-value as if you plan to use it.
