The message is especially confusing when "git fetch" is ran from "git

that "fetch" means "fetch new revisions", and gives hint on the solution.

One test case checked the stdout and stderr of 'git add' by constructing a
single 'expect' file that contained both streams. But when the command
runs, the order of stdout and stderr output is unpredictable because it
depends on how the streams are buffered. At least on Windows, the buffering
is different from what the test case expected. Hence, check the two output
texts separately.

On systems with an echo which defaults to the XSI-conformant behavior
(Solaris, or others using Ksh), echo will interpret certain backslashed
characters as control sequences. This can cause a problem for interactive
rebase when it is used to rebase commits whose commit "subject" (the first
line) contains any of these backslashed sequences. In this case, echo will
substitute the control sequence for the backslashed characters and either
the rebased commit message will differ from the original, or the rebase
process will fail. Neither is desirable.
So work around this issue by replacing the echo statements used to print
out portions of the commit message, with printf.
Also, add a test to test for this breakage.

Make sure git apply can apply patches with paths relative to the
toplevel of a work tree, a subdirectory, or within the repository
metadata directory.
Relative paths are broken for most commands when run from a
subdirectory of $GIT_DIR, "git apply" being no exception. The other
tests are meant to keep the demonstration of that company.

Tweak the style of these tests to make them easier to read.
- Replace test_rev_parse() which produced multiple mini-tests with a
simple function that can be used with the test body.
- Combine multiple mini-tests into larger chunks that are easier
to read.
- Do not hard-code object IDs. We may use a different hash some day.
- Use test_cmp in preference to the test builtin. The former
produces useful output when tests are run with the "-v" option.
- Guard all test code with test_expect_success. This makes it much
easier to visually scan through the test and find code of interest.
- Use subshells to make the current directory easier to track.
Outside of any subshell, the current directory is always
$TEST_DIRECTORY now.
Also add a new test demonstrating a possible bug noticed in the
process of cleaning up: “git rev-parse --show-prefix” leaves out
the trailing newline after an empty prefix when cwd is at the
toplevel of the work tree.

Since 9d2e942 (decode file:// and ssh:// URLs, 2010-05-23) the URL
logic unquotes escaped URLs. For the %2B type of escape, this is
conformant with RFC 2396. However, it also unquotes + into a space
character, which is only appropriate for the query strings in HTTP.
This notably broke fetching from the gtk+ repository.
We cannot just remove the corresponding code since the same
url_decode_internal() is also used by the HTTP backend to decode query
parameters. Introduce a new argument that controls whether the +
decoding happens, and use it only in the (client-side) url_decode().

the --verify does not accomplish much, since the exit status of
git rev-parse is not propagated to test. So it is more robust to

check_head_equals() as done by this patch.

We currently do not disable diff.renames configuration while rebase
internally runs "format-patch" to feed "am -3".
The end user configuration for "diff" should not affect the result
produced by the higher level command that is related to "diff" only
because internally it is implemented in terms of it.
For that matter, I have a feeling that format-patch should not even look
at diff.renames, but we seem to have been doing this for a long time so
there is no easy way to fix this thinko.
In any case, here is a much straightforward fix for "rebase".

recently the temptation to use tabs to indent has been too
strong, resulting in uneven whitespace. Switch over completely

tests:
- names of tests go on the same line as test_expect_success;

With v1.5.3.2~14 (apply --index-info: fall back to current index for
mode changes, 2007-09-17), git apply learned to stop worrying
about the lack of diff index line when a file already present in the
current index had no content change.
But it still worries too much: for rename patches, it is checking
that both the old and new filename are present in the current
index. This makes no sense, since a file rename generally
involves creating a file there was none before.
So just check the old filename.

Most tests in t4150 begin by navigating to a sane state and
applying some patch:
git checkout first &&
git am patch1
If a previous test left behind unmerged files or a .git/rebase-apply
directory, they are untouched and the test fails, causing later tests
to fail, too. This is not a problem in practice because none of the
tests leave a mess behind.
But as a futureproofing measure, it is still best to avoid the problem
and clean up at the start of each test. In particular, this
simplifies the process of adding new tests that are known to fail.

Place setup commands in test_expect_success blocks. This makes the
rare event of the setup commands breaking on some platform easier to
diagnose, and more importantly, it visually distinguishes where
each test begins and ends.
Instead of running test -z against the result of "git diff" command
substitution, use "git diff --exit-code", to improve output when
running with the "-v" option.
Use test_cmp in place of "test $(foo) = $(bar)" for similar reasons.
Remove whitespace after the > and < redirection operators for
consistency with other tests.
The order of arguments to test_cmp is "test_cmp expected actual".
