Junio C Hamano	41ac414ea2	Sane use of test_expect_failure Originally, test_expect_failure was designed to be the opposite of test_expect_success, but this was a bad decision. Most tests run a series of commands that leads to the single command that needs to be tested, like this: test_expect_{success,failure} 'test title' ' setup1 && setup2 && setup3 && what is to be tested ' And expecting a failure exit from the whole sequence misses the point of writing tests. Your setup$N that are supposed to succeed may have failed without even reaching what you are trying to test. The only valid use of test_expect_failure is to check a trivial single command that is expected to fail, which is a minority in tests of Porcelain-ish commands. This large-ish patch rewrites all uses of test_expect_failure to use test_expect_success and rewrites the condition of what is tested, like this: test_expect_success 'test title' ' setup1 && setup2 && setup3 && ! this command should fail ' test_expect_failure is redefined to serve as a reminder that that test should succeed but due to a known breakage in git it currently does not pass. So if git-foo command should create a file 'bar' but you discovered a bug that it doesn't, you can write a test like this: test_expect_failure 'git-foo should create bar' ' rm -f bar && git foo && test -f bar ' This construct acts similar to test_expect_success, but instead of reporting "ok/FAIL" like test_expect_success does, the outcome is reported as "FIXED/still broken".

Johannes Sixt	c9ecf4f12a	for-each-ref: Fix quoting style constants. for-each-ref can accept only one quoting style. For this reason it uses OPT_BIT for the quoting style switches so that it is easy to check for more than one bit being set. However, not all symbolic constants were actually single bit values. In particular: $ git for-each-ref --python error: more than one quoting style ? This fixes it. While we are here, let's also remove the space before the question mark.

Lars Hjemli	c899a57c28	for-each-ref: fix setup of option-parsing for --sort The option value for --sort is already a pointer to a pointer to struct ref_sort, so just use it. Signed-off-by: Lars Hjemli <hjemli@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	17 years ago
