Sure, will do. I just have to figure out how to make it executable in windows ;) As this is my first test, I was wondering a bit about how much I could depend on the state of the repo, so I was a bit reluctant to add it to the same test. But I guess it's easier for everyone in the long term to put it into the same test, so I'll give it a go. >> +test_expect_success 'tree_tag' 'git fast-export tree_tag' >> +test_expect_success 'tree_tag-obj' 'git fast-export tree_tag-obj' >> +test_expect_success 'tag-obj_tag' 'git fast-export tag-obj_tag' >> +test_expect_success 'tag-obj_tag-obj' 'git fast-export tag-obj_tag-obj' >> + >> +test_done > > The purpose of the first patch that adds tests is to expose existing > problems, and it is better to say test_expect_failure in them.

Sure, will do. I was a bit lazy, but updating it as we go will make stuff easier in the future. > These tests seem to only care about fast-export not dying, but don't we > also want to check if they produce correct results? Well, yeah. But I was working mainly on fixing a crash-bug here, and I don't think I know enough about the correct output of fast-export to pull this off. Perhaps tighting up the test is something someone else would care to do? -- Erik "kusma" Faye-Lund kusmabite@xxxxxxxxx (+47) 986 59 656 -- 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
