However, I wonder is there some way to mark a test as > explicitely "don't run if GIT_TEST_COMMIT_GRAPH is set"? Typically, we try to keep them compatible in both cases. However, you can set GIT_TEST_COMMIT_GRAPH=0 for the test, if you want. Be careful to only change it locally to the single test, not "globally" to the full test script. Thanks, -Stolee
