test-lib-functions: make 'test_cmp_rev' more informative on failure
The 'test_cmp_rev' helper is merely a wrapper around 'test_cmp' checking the output of two 'git rev-parse' commands, which means that its output on failure is not particularly informative, as it's basically two OIDs with a bit of extra clutter of the diff header, but without any indication of which two revisions have caused the failure: --- expect.rev 2018-11-17 14:02:11.569747033 +0000 +++ actual.rev 2018-11-17 14:02:11.569747033 +0000 @@ -1 +1 @@ -d79ce1670bdcb76e6d1da2ae095e890ccb326ae9 +139b20d8e6c5b496de61f033f642d0e3dbff528d It also pollutes the test repo with these two intermediate files, though that doesn't seem to cause any complications in our current tests (meaning that I couldn't find any tests that have to work around the presence of these files by explicitly removing or ignoring them). Enhance 'test_cmp_rev' to provide a more useful output on failure with less clutter: error: two revisions point to different objects: 'HEAD^': d79ce1670bdcb76e6d1da2ae095e890ccb326ae9 'extra': 139b20d8e6c5b496de61f033f642d0e3dbff528d Doing so is more convenient when storing the OIDs outputted by 'git rev-parse' in a local variable each, which, as a bonus, won't pollute the repository with intermediate files. While at it, also ensure that 'test_cmp_rev' is invoked with the right number of parameters, namely two.
