It does indeed lead to a successful test run: t5620-backfill.sh .................................. ok 1 - setup repo for object creation ok 2 - setup bare clone for server ok 3 - do partial clone 1, backfill gets all objects ok 4 - do partial clone 2, backfill min batch size ok 5 - backfill --sparse without sparse-checkout fails ok 6 - backfill --sparse ok 7 - backfill --sparse without cone mode (positive) ok 8 - backfill --sparse without cone mode (negative) ok 9 - create a partial clone over HTTP ok 10 - backfilling over HTTP succeeds # passed all 10 test(s) 1..10 Source: https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//work/tasks/3947/130943947/build.log I tested it against the other common architectures the Fedora build system provides as well, to be sure no others regressed, although there aren't as many as the Debian build system :). -- Todd
