We have a few of these sorts of old style tests, and it's good to update them. > Write test code like this: > diff --git a/t/t3001-ls-files-others-exclude.sh b/t/t3001-ls-files-others-exclude.sh > index 48cec4e5f88..76361b92336 100755 > --- a/t/t3001-ls-files-others-exclude.sh > +++ b/t/t3001-ls-files-others-exclude.sh > @@ -67,26 +67,26 @@ echo '!*.2 > > allignores='.gitignore one/.gitignore one/two/.gitignore' > > -test_expect_success \ > - 'git ls-files --others with various exclude options.' \ > - 'git ls-files --others \ > +test_expect_success 'git ls-files --others with various exclude options.'

That's obviously bigger than some whitespace changes, so we could punt on it for now, but as we're looking at this anyway we could convert fully to a more modern style in a follow-up commit... > -test_expect_success \ > - 'git ls-files with path restriction with --.' \ > - 'git ls-files --others -- path0 >output && > +test_expect_success 'git ls-files with path restriction with --.'
