Denton Liu 5b0ac09fb1 lib-submodule-update: pass 'test_must_fail' as an argument
When we run a test helper function in test_submodule_switch_common(), we
sometimes specify a whole helper function as the $command. When we do
this, in some test cases, we just mark the whole function with
`test_must_fail`. However, it's possible that the helper function might
fail earlier or later than expected due to an introduced bug. If this
happens, then the test case will still report as passing but it should
really be marked as failing since it didn't actually display the
intended behaviour.

Instead of invoking `test_must_fail $command`, pass the string
"test_must_fail" as the second argument in case where the git command is
expected to fail.

When $command is a helper function, the parent function calling
test_submodule_switch_common() is test_submodule_switch_func(). For all
test_submodule_switch_func() invocations, increase the granularity of
the argument test helper function by prefixing the git invocation which is
meant to fail with the second argument like this:

	$2 git checkout "$1"

In the other cases, test_submodule_switch() and
test_submodule_forced_switch(), instead of passing in the git command
directly, wrap it using the git_test_func() and pass the git arguments
using the global variable $gitcmd. Unfortunately, since closures aren't
a thing in shell scripts, the global variable is necessary. Another
unfortunate result is that the "git_test_func" will used as the test
case name when $command is printed but it's worth it for the cleaner
code.

Finally, as an added bonus, `test_must_fail` will now only run on git
commands.

Git - fast, scalable, distributed revision control system

Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals.

Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License version 2 (some parts of it are under different licenses, compatible with the GPLv2). It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net.

Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.

Many Git online resources are accessible from https://git-scm.com/ including full documentation and Git related tools.

See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see Documentation/giteveryday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and Documentation/git-<commandname>.txt for documentation of each command. If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be read with man gittutorial or git help tutorial, and the documentation of each command with man git-<commandname> or git help <commandname>.

CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt (man gitcvs-migration or git help cvs-migration if git is installed).

The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission). To subscribe to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are available at https://lore.kernel.org/git/, http://marc.info/?l=git and other archival sites.

Issues which are security relevant should be disclosed privately to the Git Security mailing list git-security@googlegroups.com.

The maintainer frequently sends the "What's cooking" reports that list the current status of various development topics to the mailing list. The discussion following them give a good reference for project status, development direction and remaining tasks.

The name "git" was given by Linus Torvalds when he wrote the very first version. He described the tool as "the stupid content tracker" and the name as (depending on your mood):

  • random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not actually used by any common UNIX command. The fact that it is a mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant.
  • stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the dictionary of slang.
  • "global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room.
  • "goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks
