This lists all the git commands in $PATH which is causing "make test" to
fail when I run it locally as it is testing all my local "git-*" scripts
most of which apparently fail this test. If there isn't already we
should add a option that lists the commands only in $GIT_EXEC_PATH and
use it here.
That should only happen if you set GIT_TEST_INSTALLED or something,
right? Or maybe some even more exotic setup: even with my
distro-installed Git, the command doesn't list my git-* scripts in
$PATH or installed extensions (like git-when-merged).
Sorry for the confusion, I've just had another look and it turns out I
had some rubbish laying around in the root of my repository which was
causing the problem.
Also when I run the test with '-i' it does not stop at the first
failure. I'm not sure what's causing that as I thought
test_expect_success should exit on failure even when it is called in a loop.
That's odd: when I make some modifications that cause a failure and
run with "-i," it does stop early. Hm.
Thanks for looking carefully! I'm personally having a hard time
reproducing the issue though :/
Hmm, I'm not sure what was happening, at the time it looked like the
loop was continuing but I can't reproduce it either now.
Thanks for taking a look and sorry for the noise
