I think you misread the test: yes, we do test stdout and stderr separately and in many cases assert that stdout is in fact empty. But none of the added tests are about failing commands. So given that: - The added tests explicitly are about verifying the output format. - The distinction between stdout and stderr matters. - The distinction matters even more with the addition of `--porcelain`. I think that explicitly verifing both output streams is the correct thing to do. > > - Patch 9/9: The `--porcelain` option is now a simple `OPT_BOOL()` > > that can be negated.

Ah, right, `DISPLAY_FORMAT_UNKNOWN` isn't really needed anymore. I think it's still good to have valid values of the enum start with `1` so that it becomes easier to detect cases where we accidentally use a default initialized variable. But that can be achieved without giving the default value an explicit name. I'll refrain from sending a new version just to remove this constant as it doesn't really feel worth it, though. But please, let me know in case you disagree and I'll send an updated version. Thanks Patrick
