2008-03-13	add test_cmp function for test scripts	Jeff King	1	-2/+2
	Many scripts compare actual and expected output using "diff -u". This is nicer than "cmp" because the output shows how the two differ. However, not all versions of diff understand -u, leading to unnecessary test failure. This adds a test_cmp function to the test scripts and switches all "diff -u" invocations to use it. The function uses the contents of "$GIT_TEST_CMP" to compare its arguments; the default is "diff -u". On systems with a less-capable diff, you can do: GIT_TEST_CMP=cmp make test Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2007-07-29	rebase: try not to munge commit log message	Junio C Hamano	1	-0/+48
	This makes rebase/am keep the original commit log message better, even when it does not conform to "single line paragraph to say what it does, then explain and defend why it is a good change in later paragraphs" convention. This change is a two-edged sword. While the earlier behaviour would make such commit log messages more friendly to readers who expect to get the birds-eye view with oneline summary formats, users who primarily use git as a way to interact with foreign SCM systems would not care much about the convenience of oneline git log tools, but care more about preserving their own convention. This changes their commits less useful to readers who read them with git tools while keeping them more consistent with the foreign SCM systems they interact with.
