Thomas Rast	a463aefa35	test-terminal: set output terminals to raw mode Not setting them to raw mode causes funny things to happen, such as \n -> \r\n translation: ./test-terminal.perl echo foo \| xxd 0000000: 666f 6f0d 0a foo.. (Notice the added 0d.) To avoid this, set the (pseudo)terminal to raw mode. Note that the IO::Pty docs recommend doing it on both master and slave.

Jeff King	e23f436c35	tests: test terminal output to both stdout and stderr Some outputs (like the pager) care whether stdout is a terminal. Others (like progress meters) care about stderr. This patch sets up both. Technically speaking, we could go further and set up just one (because either the other goes to a terminal, or because our tests are only interested in one). This patch does both to keep the interface to lib-terminal simple.

Jeff King	cc4e48fc1e	tests: factor out terminal handling from t7006 Other tests besides the pager ones may want to check how we handle output to a terminal. This patch makes the code reusable.

Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason	d48b284183	perl: bump the required Perl version to 5.8 from 5.6.[21] Formalize our dependency on perl 5.8, bumped from 5.6.[12]. We already used the three-arg form of open() which was introduced in 5.6.1, but t/t9700/test.pl explicitly depended on 5.6.2. However git-add--interactive.pl has been failing on the 5.6 line since it was introduced in v1.5.0-rc0~12^2~2 back in 2006 due to this open syntax: sub run_cmd_pipe { my $fh = undef; open($fh, '-\|', @_) or die; return <$fh>; } Which when executed dies on "Can't use an undefined value as filehandle reference". Several of our tests also fail on 5.6 (even more when compiled with NO_PERL_MAKEMAKER=1): t2016-checkout-patch.sh t3904-stash-patch.sh t3701-add-interactive.sh t7105-reset-patch.sh t7501-commit.sh t9700-perl-git.sh Our code is bitrotting on 5.6 with no-one interested in fixing it, and pinning us to such an ancient release of Perl is keeping us from using useful features introduced in the 5.8 release. The 5.6 series is now over 10 years old, and the 5.6.2 maintenance release almost 7. 5.8 on the other hand is more than 8 years old. All the modern Unix-like operating systems have now upgraded to it or a later version, and 5.8 packages are available for old IRIX, AIX Solaris and Tru64 systems.

Jonathan Nieder	2d3ca21677	t7006-pager: if stdout is not a terminal, make a new one Testing pagination requires (fake or real) access to a terminal so we can see whether the pagination automatically kicks in, which makes it hard to get good coverage when running tests without --verbose. There are a number of ways to work around that: - Replace all isatty calls with calls to a custom xisatty wrapper that usually checks for a terminal but can be overridden for tests. This would be workable, but it would require implementing xisatty separately in three languages (C, shell, and perl) and making sure that any code that is to be tested always uses the wrapper. - Redirect stdout to /dev/tty. This would be problematic because there might be no terminal available, and even if a terminal is available, it might not be appropriate to spew output to it. - Create a new pseudo-terminal on the fly and capture its output. This patch implements the third approach. The new test-terminal.perl helper uses IO::Pty from Expect.pm to create a terminal and executes the program specified by its arguments with that terminal as stdout. If the IO::Pty module is missing or not working on a system, the test script will maintain its old behavior (skipping most of its tests unless GIT_TEST_OPTS includes --verbose).
