From 79e9ce21fa728edef5b7db12710ae24e091b8f9f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tanay Abhra Date: Thu, 7 Aug 2014 04:59:18 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] add a test for semantic errors in config files Semantic errors (for example, for alias.* variables NULL values are not allowed) in configuration files cause a die printing the line number and file name of the offending value. Add a test documenting that such errors cause a die printing the accurate line number and file name.
