It is much worse than that. If existing tests after this step were running destructive operations in their "..", because we have this extra "sub" directory and such a destructive test were running there, the damage would have been contained in $TRASH_DIRECTORY but with this change, it will touch t/ (or the parent directory of the $TRASH_DIRECTORY). So, "will work properly" may not be sufficient; we need to audit the rest of the script and make sure there is no such funny "step outside the test enviromnent" happening before we are sure that this is a "safe" change. It is the "right" thing to do, though. I do not see any reason why we want to have an extra level "sub" directory there. > > Signed-off-by: Jiang Xin <zhiyou.jx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > --- > t/t1301-shared-repo.sh | 2 -- > 1 file changed, 2 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/t/t1301-shared-repo.sh b/t/t1301-shared-repo.sh > index 3ca91bf504..c4f2f72f6b 100755 > --- a/t/t1301-shared-repo.sh > +++ b/t/t1301-shared-repo.sh > @@ -46,8 +46,6 @@ do > done > > test_expect_success 'shared=all' ' > - mkdir sub && > - cd sub && > git init --template= --shared=all && > test 2 = $(git config core.sharedrepository) > '
