This does not catch if the outer expect_success does not catch a failure in the inner expect_success and signal a failure. When I asked if this kind of breakage is an easy mistake to catch by the test lint, I had something along this in mind: test_expect_success () { if test -n "$GIT_IN_TEST_EXPECT" then BUG caling "$GIT_IN_TEST_EXPECT" inside test_expect_success fi GIT_IN_TEST_EXPECT=test_expect_success ... do the 'eval the given test body' thing .. GIT_IN_TEST_EXPECT= } After all, the error is in the outer expect_success in that it called another one, so it feels more natural that the called inner expect_success to notice the situation and barf. Thanks.
