I do not think this implies the ordering between the main test and the extra test. "make test-all" actually makes a confusing mess on the terminal by conflating outputs from the main test and tests run in contrib. But because test-extra depends on all, we are keeping the assumption that Makefiles in contrib/ may assume that the primary build has already been done. >> diff --git i/ci/run-build-and-tests.sh w/ci/run-build-and-tests.sh >> index cc62616d80..9da0f26665 100755 >> --- i/ci/run-build-and-tests.sh >> +++ w/ci/run-build-and-tests.sh >> @@ -19,7 +19,7 @@ make >> case "$jobname" in >> linux-gcc) >> export GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME=main >> - make test >> + make test-all > > Since we are now building and testing things that we have not been > testing recently, it is worth checking that we don't have any work > to do to make this pass.
