Well, I don't really think it matters. I doubt we'll break that code that invokes the pre-receive or post-receive hooks. And as those hooks are defined to never take arguments if we did suddenly start passing arguments we want the test to break. When tests break sometimes its not obvious why they have broken. Case in point, the "remote: " prefixing caused by the sideband demultiplexer really confused me for about 15 minutes. I could not figure out why the last test in this script was failing. Until I pulled my head out of the sand and looked at the "actual" file and saw those prefixes. At which point it was very obvious. :) We haven't touched that script in almost a year. I poked at it only to fix a stupid error from my printf implementation, and because of the new "remote:" prefix. Which since it is a change in behavior may cause problems for anyone who is trying to screen-scrape the stderr of git-push. Gawd I hope nobody's scripts are that convoluted. -- Shawn. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
