# [PATCH 1/4] t/t7502: compare entire commit message with what was expected 19 messages from 2013-02-19 to 2013-02-19. Participants: Brandon Casey, Jonathan Nieder, Junio C Hamano. Thread: https://gitlist.dev/t/32932 ## Brandon Casey, 2013-02-19 04:17 Subject: [PATCH 1/4] t/t7502: compare entire commit message with what was expected Message-ID: <1361247427-438-1-git-send-email-drafnel@gmail.com> URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/1361247427-438-1-git-send-email-drafnel%40gmail.com ``` This test attempts to verify that a commit in "verbatim" mode, when supplied a commit template, produces a commit in which the commit message matches exactly the template that was supplied. But, since the commit operation appends additional instructions for the user as comments in the commit buffer, which would cause the comparison to fail, this test decided to compare only the first three lines (the length of the template) of the resulting commit message to the original template file. This has two problems. 1. It does not allow the template to be lengthened or shortened without also modifying the number of lines that are considered significant (i.e. the argument to 'head -n'). 2. It will not catch a bug in git that causes git to append additional lines to the commit message. So, let's use the --no-status option to 'git commit' which will cause git to refrain from appending the lines of instructional text to the commit message. This will allow the entire resulting commit message to be compared against the expected value.

But, this test has been broken since it was introduced. Since the commit message containing trailing newlines was supplied to 'git commit' using a command substitution, the trailing newlines were removed by the shell. This means that a string without any trailing newlines was actually supplied to 'git commit'. The test was able to complete successfully since internally, git appends two newlines to each string supplied via the -m switch. So, the two newlines removed by the shell were then re-added by git, and the resulting commit matched what was expected. So, let's move the initial creation of the commit message string out from within a previous test so that it stands alone. Assign the desired commit message to a variable using literal newlines. Then populate the expect file from the contents of the commit message variable. This way the shell variable becomes the authoritative source of the commit message and can be supplied via the -m switch with the trailing newlines intact. Mark this test as failing, since it is not handled correctly by git. As described above, git appends two extra newlines to every string supplied via -m.

The purpose of this is to allow -m to be supplied multiple times and have each supplied string become a paragraph in the resulting commit message. Normally, this does not cause a problem since any trailing newlines will be removed by the cleanup operation. If cleanup=verbatim for example, then the trailing newlines will not be removed and will survive into the resulting commit message. Instead, let's ensure that the string supplied to -m is newline terminated, but only append a second newline when appending additional messages. Fixes the test in t7502.

Hmm, I think the original text was more confusing than I realized. I think we should reorder the cleanup modes, placing "default" last, and then describe default in terms of either strip or whitespace depending on whether an editor will be spawned. > Signed-off-by: Jonathan Nieder > > --- i/Documentation/git-commit.txt > +++ w/Documentation/git-commit.txt > @@ -172,16 +172,25 @@ OPTIONS > linkgit:git-commit-tree[1]. > > --cleanup=:: > - This option sets how the commit message is cleaned up. > - The '' can be one of 'verbatim', 'whitespace', 'strip', > - and 'default'.

Can't we be a bit more robust by not using a hardcoded block of lines as the "expect" string? You could for example use what you would see in your editor when "git commit" is run without the "-t" option to form the expected pattern, no? In any case, I think (1) a test for 'verbatim with status' is worth doing, and (2) it would be cleaner to do this as a separate step, perhaps on top of Brandon's 4-patch series. > > Signed-off-by: Jonathan Nieder > > diff --git i/t/t7502-commit.sh w/t/t7502-commit.sh > index cbd7a459..64162fce 100755 > --- i/t/t7502-commit.sh > +++ w/t/t7502-commit.sh > @@ -180,15 +180,37 @@ test_expect_success 'verbose respects diff config' ' > test_expect_success 'cleanup commit messages (verbatim option,-t)' ' > > echo >>negative && > - { echo;echo "# text";echo; } >expect && > - git commit --cleanup=verbatim -t expect -a && > - git cat-file -p HEAD |sed -e "1,/^\$/d" |head -n 3 >actual && > + { > + echo && > + echo "# text" && > + echo > + } >template && > + { > + cat template && > + cat <<-\EOF && > + > + # Please enter the commit message for your changes.
