The call to "git reset --hard B1" failed on case-insensitive file
systems (such as the default settings for HFS+) because there was both
a tag "B1" and a file "b1".  Adding "--" to the command makes it
clear that we mean commit B1.

It is not just B1 that is ambiguous, even though that is the only
ambiguous one this particular test uses.

If we really wanted to care about case-folding file systems, shouldn't we
make test_commit shell function a bit more than the downcasing?  How about
this patch instead?

Or

	file=${2:-$1.file}

but I was not quite sure about the impact; I might have checked for 
specific filenames.

Brian, if you would have the time to go through the tests if an automatic 
filename was used, that would be smashing!  (We cannot just run the tests 
and look at the failures, as absence of files could be tested; I don't 
remember, debugging zlib/valgrind currently turns my brain into tatties.)

That's a good point.  Always good to prevent future issues.

Added this and ran through the tests.  Works for me. :-D

This change appears to have been forgotten, but does fix the problems  
I was having.  Junio, can this make it into the official repo instead  
of floating around in my local?  I'd send in a patch, but it was your  
code and I don't want to take credit for it.

Top-poster!


Besides, I think that my latest comment still stands there: testing is not 
good enough, code inspection is required if something expects the file 
names as they used to be.

Well, yes.  I wasn't replying to anything in the e-mail, I just wanted  
to bring it back to attention.

As far as I can tell, no test relies on the auto-generated name of the  
test file.  In fact, only t3411 uses that feature at all and it only  
performs operations on commits.  All other uses of test_commit give a  
filename (even though many of them don't appear to use the file).

You did, in fact, refer a little bit to the content of the thread you were 
replying to.

If there's something I missed, could you perhaps say what it is  
instead of being cryptic?  I have a day job and am attempting to  
squeeze in searching for this between tasks.  This fix (or similar)  
needs to make it into master so that the tests can run on case- 
insensitive file systems.

I used git grep to find uses of test_commit in next, and the only uses  
that did not provide a file name argument were in t3411.  I read  
through every test in the file, and the only operations I saw were  
test_commit, test_merge, checkout -b, reset without filenames, rebase,  
and rev-parse.  All operations on commits, not files.

The tests all run properly, and I've run t3411 individually (since  
it's apparently the only one using this feature) using -v to ensure  
that it was actually performing work and it seems to be.

So, based on the above, every usage of test_commit either provides a  
file name or does not care about the names of the files.  Unless you  
have something that says it isn't, I'd like to see the fix Junio gave  
applied (repeated here as a reminder):

I examined all of those files.  I looked at every line that calls  
test_commit.  All of those files except for t34110-rebase-preserve- 
around-merges.sh provide a filename of their own and are therefore  
unaffected by the change

Use "git grep" without the -l and you will see that all uses outside  
of t3411 are of the form "test_commit <commit> <filename>".  Only  
t3411 uses the form "test_commit <commit>" (without filename), which  
is when this change would matter.  And t3411 does not use the  
generated filename, only the resultant commits.

I was irritated by your statement that I "did not look far" because _I  
read all those files_.  I gave you the result of reading them which  
you seem to have completely ignored, as it was the part of my last e- 
mail that you did not quote.

If you want to double-check me, fine.  But do not claim I did not do  
the work.

Thanks, both, and let's not be unnecessarily un-nice to each other.

I agree that Dscho's "far enough" comment was not the best way to say "I
really want to make sure you did verify the way I would myself", but
please just let it pass, pretend that he just expressed frustration on his
lack of time to do the verification himself with that comment.  Ok?

The thing is, nobody active in git land is paid to work on git.  You
don't, Dscho doesn't and I neither.

I'll try to find time myself to triple check if you two want to, even
though it is known that I often get tripped by the same kind of
brain-slippage as Dscho when Dscho does get tripped, so my auditing might
not add much to the collective confidence level ;-).

Fair enough.  My own word choice wasn't exactly wise, either.  This  
has been an especially frustrating day for me in many other respects  
and it's affected my commentary here.

Dscho, my apologies.

Thanks ;-)

I inspected all files that git grep -p showed me, and I see that t3412 
uses the file names, but passes explicit parameters to test_commit for 
them.  So that is fine, too.

Just as a matter of preference, I'd not downcase, but instead append a 
".file" in test_commit, but that's not a strong preference.  (I'd not 
downcase, because that was done only to prevent the tag to have the same 
name as the file, but that did not work...)

Ciao,
Dscho

Agreed, there is no point to downcase the name.
