You are right that we should be checking for deletions or adds _as well_ as modifications. The test_sparse_entry_unstaged helper is used in a variety of situations that typically would trigger a modification, but at least one instance in this test is a possible deletion. > >> +} >> + >> test_expect_success 'setup' " >> cat >sparse_error_header <<-EOF && >> The following pathspecs didn't match any eligible path, but they do match index >> @@ -55,6 +61,7 @@ test_expect_success 'git add does not remove sparse entries' ' >> setup_sparse_entry && >> rm sparse_entry && >> test_must_fail git add sparse_entry 2>stderr && >> + test_sparse_entry_unstaged && Here, sparse_entry could be staged as a deletion. >> test_cmp error_and_hint stderr && >> test_sparse_entry_unchanged >> ' >> @@ -73,6 +80,7 @@ test_expect_success 'git add . does not remove sparse entries' ' >> rm sparse_entry && >> setup_gitignore && >> test_must_fail git add . 2>stderr && >> + test_sparse_entry_unstaged && Deletion here. >> cat sparse_error_header >expect && >> echo . >>expect && >> @@ -88,6 +96,7 @@ do >> setup_sparse_entry && >> echo modified >sparse_entry && >> test_must_fail git add $opt sparse_entry 2>stderr && >> + test_sparse_entry_unstaged && But here would be modified. >> test_cmp error_and_hint stderr && >> test_sparse_entry_unchanged >> ' >> @@ -98,6 +107,7 @@ test_expect_success 'git add --refresh does not update sparse entries' ' >> git ls-files --debug sparse_entry | grep mtime >before && >> test-tool chmtime -60 sparse_entry && >> test_must_fail git add --refresh sparse_entry 2>stderr && >> + test_sparse_entry_unstaged && Same here. >> test_cmp error_and_hint stderr && >> git ls-files --debug sparse_entry | grep mtime >after && >> test_cmp before after >> @@ -106,6 +116,7 @@ test_expect_success 'git add --refresh does not update sparse entries' ' >> test_expect_success 'git add --chmod does not update sparse entries' ' >> setup_sparse_entry && >> test_must_fail git add --chmod=+x sparse_entry 2>stderr && >> + test_sparse_entry_unstaged && Here it would be modified with a mode change. Using the pattern "^[MDARCU][M ] sparse_entry\$" seems to work while also covering these other cases. Thanks, -Stolee
