Why not just use $1, $2, $3,...? My guess is that you want to be able to insert a new parameter in the middle in the future without changing the later numbers, but that seems unlikely, and we could just add the parameter at the end. > + hash=$(git -C "$dir" rev-parse "$rev") && > + printf "$fmt\n" "$hash" "$entry" >expected && > + if grep "$entry" "$file" >line > + then > + test_cmp expected line > + else > + cat cache && > + false > + fi > +} > + > test_expect_success 'sparse-index contents' ' > init_repos && > > - test-tool -C sparse-index read-cache --table >cache && > + git -C sparse-index ls-files --sparse >cache && > for dir in folder1 folder2 x > do > - TREE=$(git -C sparse-index rev-parse HEAD:$dir) && > - grep "040000 tree $TREE $dir/" cache \ > - || return 1 > + test_index_entry_like sparse-index "040000 %s 0\t%s" "HEAD:$dir" "$dir/" cache || return 1 I see how this uses only one line, but it seems like the test_index_entry_like is too generic to make it not a complicated mess of format strings that need to copy over and over again. Perhaps instead it could be a "test_entry_is_tree" and it only passes "$dir" and "cache"? Then we could drop the loop and just have test_entry_is_tree cache folder1 && test_entry_is_tree cache folder2 && test_entry_is_tree cache x && or we could still use the loop, especially when we test for four trees. > - test-tool -C sparse-index read-cache --table >cache && > + git -C sparse-index ls-files --sparse >cache && > for dir in deep/deeper2 folder1 folder2 x > do > - TREE=$(git -C sparse-index rev-parse HEAD:$dir) && > - grep "040000 tree $TREE $dir/" cache \ > - || return 1 > + test_index_entry_like sparse-index "040000 %s 0\t%s" "HEAD:$dir" "$dir/" cache || return 1 > done && > > + grep 040000 cache >lines && > + test_line_count = 4 lines && > + The point here is to check that no other entries are trees? We know that this number will be _at least_ 4 based on the loop above. Thanks, -Stolee
