I just want to check my understanding of this test, since I think it's the first time I've reviewed anything using this test harness: On Wed Sep 18, 2024 at 2:32 PM AEST, Patrick Steinhardt wrote: > diff --git a/t/unit-tests/t-reftable-stack.c b/t/unit-tests/t-reftable-stack.c > index d62a9c1bed5..a37cc698d87 100644 > --- a/t/unit-tests/t-reftable-stack.c > +++ b/t/unit-tests/t-reftable-stack.c > @@ -271,7 +271,7 @@ static void t_reftable_stack_transaction_api(void) > > reftable_addition_destroy(add); > > - err = reftable_stack_new_addition(&add, st); > + err = reftable_stack_new_addition(&add, st, 0); > check(!err); > > err = reftable_addition_add(add, write_test_ref, &ref); > @@ -292,6 +292,68 @@ static void t_reftable_stack_transaction_api(void) > clear_dir(dir); > } > > +static void t_reftable_stack_transaction_with_reload(void) > +{ > + char *dir = get_tmp_dir(__LINE__); > + struct reftable_stack *st1 = NULL, *st2 = NULL; > + int err; > + struct reftable_addition *add = NULL; > + struct reftable_ref_record refs[2] = { > + { > + .refname = (char *) "refs/heads/a", > + .update_index = 1, > + .value_type = REFTABLE_REF_VAL1, > + .value.val1 = { '1' }, > + }, > + { > + .refname = (char *) "refs/heads/b", > + .update_index = 2, > + .value_type = REFTABLE_REF_VAL1, > + .value.val1 = { '1' }, > + }, > + }; > + struct reftable_ref_record ref = { 0 }; > + Create two reftable stacks that provide a view into the reftable tables inside "dir". > + err = reftable_new_stack(&st1, dir, NULL); > + check(!err); > + err = reftable_new_stack(&st2, dir, NULL); > + check(!err); > + Successfully add refs[0] to the first stack using the transactional API. > + err = reftable_stack_new_addition(&add, st1, 0); > + check(!err); > + err = reftable_addition_add(add, write_test_ref, &refs[0]); > + check(!err); > + err = reftable_addition_commit(add); > + check(!err); > + reftable_addition_destroy(add); > + > + /* > + * The second stack is now outdated, which we should notice.
