2009-03-22	Use prerequisite tags to skip tests that depend on symbolic links	Johannes Sixt	1	-0/+7
	Many tests depend on that symbolic links work. This introduces a check that sets the prerequisite tag SYMLINKS if the file system supports symbolic links. Since so many tests have to check for this prerequisite, we do the check in test-lib.sh, so that we don't need to repeat the test in many scripts. To check for 'ln -s' failures, you can use a FAT partition on Linux: $ mkdosfs -C git-on-fat 1000000 $ sudo mount -o loop,uid=j6t,gid=users,shortname=winnt git-on-fat /mnt Clone git to /mnt and $ GIT_SKIP_TESTS='t0001.1[34] t0010 t1301 t403[34] t4129.[47] t5701.7 t7701.3 t9100 t9101.26 t9119 t9124.[67] t9200.10 t9600.6' \ make test (These additionally skipped tests depend on POSIX permissions that FAT on Linux does not provide.)

2009-03-14	test-suite: Make test script numbers unique	Johannes Sixt	1	-0/+78
	In order to selectively skip tests, the environment variable GIT_SKIP_TESTS can be set like this: $ GIT_SKIP_TESTS='t1301 t4150.18' make test That is, its value can contain only the test script numbers, but not the full script name. Therefore, it is important that the test scripts are uniquely numbered. This makes it so. Signed-off-by: Johannes Sixt <j6t@kdbg.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
