Using a common name (such as "setup") is important since it facilitates running only specific tests within a script in which you are interested rather than having to run all tests. The section "Skipping Tests" in t/README says this: Sometimes there may be multiple tests with e.g. "setup" in their name that are needed and rather than figuring out the number for all of them we can just use "setup" as a substring/glob to match against the test description: $ sh ./t0050-filesystem.sh --run=setup,9-11 or one could select both the setup tests and the rename ones (assuming all relevant tests had those words in their descriptions): $ sh ./t0050-filesystem.sh --run=setup,rename > + x_to_tab >.git/config <<-\EOF > + [section] > + Xsolid = rock > + Xsparse = big XX blue > + XsparseAndTail = big XX blue > + XsparseAndTailQuoted = "big XX blue " > + XsparseAndBiggerTail = big XX blue X X > + XsparseAndBiggerTailQuoted = "big XX blue X X" > + XsparseAndBiggerTailQuotedPlus = "big XX blue X X"X > + XheadAndTail = Xbig blue > + XheadAndTailQuoted = "Xbig blue " > + XheadAndTailQuotedPlus = "Xbig blue " > + Xannotated = big blueX# to be discarded > + XannotatedQuoted = "big blue"X# to be discarded > + EOF > +' The <<- operator strips all leading TAB characters, so the extra indentation you've placed inside the "[section]" section is stripped off. Thus, what you have above is the same as: x_to_tab >.git/config <<-\EOF [section] Xsolid = rock ... EOF On a related note, it's not clear why you use 'X' to insert a TAB at the beginning of each line. As I understand it, the configuration file reader does not require such indentation, thus doing so is wasted. Moreover, it confuses readers of this code (and reviewers) into thinking that something unusual is going on, and leads to questions such as this one: Why do you use 'X' to insert a TAB at the beginning of the line? > -test_expect_success 'clear default config' ' > +test_expect_success 'clear default configuration' ' > rm -f .git/config > ' It's probably not worth a reroll, but it's usually better to avoid this sort of do-nothing noise-change since it distracts reviewers from the primary changes made by the patch. > @@ -1066,9 +1156,25 @@ test_expect_success '--null --get-regexp' ' > -test_expect_success 'inner whitespace kept verbatim' ' > - git config section.val "foo bar" && > - test_cmp_config "foo bar" section.val > +test_expect_success 'inner whitespace kept verbatim, spaces only' ' > + echo "foo bar" >expect && > + git config section.val "foo bar" && > + git config --get section.val >actual && > + test_cmp expect actual > +' I appreciate the revised test title ("spaces only") which indicates that these aren't TABs which were missed when converting to use q_to_tab() or x_to_tab().
