2025-04-07t: refactor tests depending on Perl substitution operatorPatrick Steinhardt1-2/+3
We have a bunch of tests that use Perl to perform substitution via the "s/" operator. These usecases can be trivially replaced with sed(1) and tr(1). Refactor the tests accordingly so that we can drop a couple of PERL_TEST_HELPERS prerequisites. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2025-04-07t: introduce PERL_TEST_HELPERS prerequisitePatrick Steinhardt1-1/+1
In the early days of Git, Perl was used quite prominently throughout the project. This has changed significantly as almost all of the executables we ship nowadays have eventually been rewritten in C. Only a handful of subsystems remain that require Perl: - gitweb, a read-only web interface. - A couple of scripts that allow importing repositories from GNU Arch, CVS and Subversion. - git-send-email(1), which can be used to send mails. - git-request-pull(1), which is used to request somebody to pull from a URL by sending an email. - git-filter-branch(1), which uses Perl with the `--state-branch` option. This command is typically recommended against nowadays in favor of git-filter-repo(1). - Our Perl bindings for Git. - The netrc Git credential helper. None of these subsystems can really be considered to be part of the "core" of Git, and an installation without them is fully functional. It is more likely than not that an end user wouldn't even notice that any features are missing if those tools weren't installed. But while Perl nowadays very much is an optional dependency of Git, there is a significant limitation when Perl isn't available: developers cannot run our test suite. Preceding commits have started to lift this restriction by removing the strict dependency on Perl in many central parts of the test library. But there are still many tests that rely on small Perl helpers to do various different things. Introduce a new PERL_TEST_HELPERS prerequisite that guards all tests that require Perl. This prerequisite is explicitly different than the preexisting PERL prerequisite: - PERL records whether or not features depending on the Perl interpreter are built. - PERL_TEST_HELPERS records whether or not a Perl interpreter is available for our tests. By having these two separate prerequisites we can thus distinguish between tests that inherently depend on Perl because the underlying feature does, and those tests that depend on Perl because the test itself is using Perl. Adapt all tests to set the PERL_TEST_HELPERS prerequisite as needed. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2024-11-21t: remove TEST_PASSES_SANITIZE_LEAK annotationsPatrick Steinhardt1-1/+0
Now that the default value for TEST_PASSES_SANITIZE_LEAK is `true` there is no longer a need to have that variable declared in all of our tests. Drop it. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2021-11-01leak tests: mark some diff tests as passing with SANITIZE=leakÆvar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-0/+1
Mark some tests that match "*diff*" as passing when git is compiled with SANITIZE=leak. They'll now be listed as running under the "GIT_TEST_PASSING_SANITIZE_LEAK=true" test mode (the "linux-leaks" CI target).

Adjust the test so that it computes variables for blobs instead of using hard-coded hashes. Signed-off-by: brian m. carlson <sandals@crustytoothpaste.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2018-05-21t4029: fix test indentationbrian m. carlson1-17/+16
We typically indent our tests with a single tab, partially so that we can take advantage of indented heredocs. Make this change and move the quote marks to be in the typical position for our tests.

2013-10-29t: use perl instead of "$PERL_PATH" where applicableJeff King1-1/+1
As of the last commit, we can use "perl" instead of "$PERL_PATH" when running tests, as the former is now a function which uses the latter. As the shorter "perl" is easier on the eyes, let's switch to using it everywhere. This is not quite a mechanical s/$PERL_PATH/perl/ replacement, though. There are some places where we invoke perl from a script we generate on the fly, and those scripts do not have access to our internal shell functions. The result can be double-checked by running: ln -s /bin/false bin-wrappers/perl make test which continues to pass even after this patch.

2012-06-24tests: enclose $PERL_PATH in double quotesJunio C Hamano1-1/+1
Otherwise it will be split at a space after "Program" when it is set to "\\Program Files\perl" or something silly like that. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2012-06-12t: Replace 'perl' by $PERL_PATHVincent van Ravesteijn1-1/+1
GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS defines PERL_PATH to be used in the test suite. Only a few tests already actually use this variable when perl is needed. The other test just call 'perl' and it might happen that the wrong perl interpreter is used. This becomes problematic on Windows, when the perl interpreter that is compiled and installed on the Windows system is used, because this perl interpreter might introduce some unexpected LF->CRLF conversions. This patch makes sure that $PERL_PATH is used everywhere in the test suite and that the correct perl interpreter is used.

2008-08-19add boolean diff.suppress-blank-empty config optionJim Meyering1-0/+39
GNU diff's --suppress-blank-empty option makes it so that diff no longer outputs trailing white space unless the input data has it. With this option, empty context lines are now empty also in diff -u output. Before, they would have a single trailing space. * diff.c (diff_suppress_blank_empty): New global. (git_diff_basic_config): Set it. (fn_out_consume): Honor it. * t/t4029-diff-trailing-space.sh: New file. * Documentation/config.txt: Document it.
