Refactor the function to write and run tests of the test-lib.sh output
into two functions.
When this was added back in 565b6fa87b (tests: refactor mechanics of
testing in a sub test-lib, 2012-12-16) there was no reason to do this,
but since we started supporting test arguments in
517cd55fd5 (test-lib: self-test that --verbose works, 2013-06-23)
we've started to write out duplicate tests simply to test different
arguments, now we'll be able to re-use them.
This change doesn't consolidate any of those tests yet, it just makes
it possible to do so. All the changes in t0000-basic.sh are a simple
search-replacement.
Since the _run_sub_test_lib_test_common() function doesn't handle
running the test anymore we can do away with the sub-shell, which was
used to scope an "unset" and "export" shell variables.

Testcases in t0000 are quite special given that they many of them run
nested testcases to verify that testing functionality itself works as
expected. These nested testcases are realized by writing a new ad-hoc
test script which again sources test-lib.sh, where the new script is
created in a nested subdirectory located beneath the current trash
directory. We then execute the new test script with the nested
subdirectory as current working directory and explicitly re-export
TEST_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY to point to that directory.
While this works as expected in the general case, it falls apart when
the developer has TEST_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY explicitly defined either via
the environment or via config.mak and runs "make test". In that case,
test-lib.sh will clobber the value that we've just carefully set up to
instead contain what the developer has defined. As a result, the
TEST_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY continues to point at the root output directory,
not at the nested one.
This issue causes breakage in the 'test_atexit is run' test case: the
nested test case writes files into "../../", which is assumed to be the
parent's trash directory. But because TEST_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY already
points to to the root output directory, we instead end up writing those
files outside of the output directory. The parent test case will then
try to check whether those files still exist in its own trash directory,
which thus must fail now.
Fix the issue by adding a new TEST_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY_OVERRIDE variable.
If set, then we'll always override the TEST_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY with its
value after sourcing GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS.

In t0000, we run several fake "sub-test" suites to verify the behavior
of the test suite. But because we don't clear the parent environment
completely, the sub-tests can be fooled by variables meant for the
parent. For example:
GIT_SKIP_TESTS=t1234 ./t0000-basic.sh
fails when a sub-test expects its fake t1234 to actually run. This
particular pattern is unlikely in practice; we're running a single
script, and there is no t1234 in the real test suite anyway (not yet, at
least). A more real-world example is:
GIT_SKIP_TESTS=t[^0]* make test
to run only the t0* tests.
The fix is conceptually simple: we should clear the GIT_SKIP_TESTS
variable when running the sub-tests, because its contents (if any) will
be meant for the main test suite. This is easy to do centrally in our
sub-test helper.
But there's a catch: some of our tests do set GIT_SKIP_TESTS
intentionally to test the feature. We need to allow them to continue to
set it, but clear it for all the other tests. And the sub-test helper
can't tell if the GIT_SKIP_TESTS it sees is from a test or not. We can
handle this by adding a new option to the helper to let callers specify
the skip list.
I considered adding a more general "--eval" option to let callers set up
the env for the sub-test however they like. That would cover this case
and possible future ones. But the quoting gets awkward for the callers
(since we're now 2 layers deep in evals!), so I went with the simpler
more specific solution.

When we use the sub-test helpers, we end up defining one shell snippet
inside another shell snippet. So if we use single-quotes for the outer
snippet, we have to use double-quotes within the inner snippet (it's
included as here-doc within the outer snippet, but using a single quote
would end the outer snippet early). Or vice versa we can use double
quotes for the outer snippet, but then single quotes in the inner.
We have some of each in the script, and neither is wrong. But it would
be nice to be consistent unless there is a good reason not to. Using
single quotes for the outer script is preferable, because it requires
less metacharacter quoting overall. For example, in:
test_expect_success 'outer' '
run_sub_test_lib_test ... <<-\EOF
echo $foo &&
test_expect_success "inner" "
echo \$bar
"
EOF
'
we need only quote inside "inner", but not inside "outer" or the
here-doc. Whereas if we flip them, we have to quote in both places:
test_expect_success 'outer' "
run_sub_test_lib_test ... <<-\EOF
echo \$foo &&
test_expect_success 'inner' '
echo \$bar
'
EOF
"
The exception is when we need a literal single-quote in an expected
output here-doc. There we can either use outer double-quotes, or just
use ${SQ} within the doc. I chose the latter for consistency (within
this test, but also with other test scripts that face the same problem).
There is one other interesting case, which is some tests that do:
test_expect_success ... "
do_something --run='"'!3'"'
"
This is rather confusing to read, but is correct. The outer script sees
'!3' in single-quotes, as does the eval'd snippet. This is perhaps being
overly cautious. In many interactive shells, an exclamation triggers
history expansion even inside double quotes, but that is not generally
true in non-interactive shells.
There's some conflicting information here. Commit 784ce03d55 (t4216:
avoid unnecessary subshell in test_bloom_filters_not_used, 2020-05-19)
reports it as a problem with OpenBSD 6.7's /bin/sh. However, we have
many instances in this script of prereqs like !LAZY_TRUE, which haven't
been a problem. I left them un-escaped here to test out this theory.
It's much nicer if we can not worry about this as a portability issue,
so it's worth knowing.

Our check of test_when_finished is done directly in the main script, and
if we failed to clean, we complain and exit immediately. It's nicer to
signal a test failure here, for a few reasons:
- this gives better output to the user when run under a TAP harness
like "prove"
- constency; it's the only test left in the file that behaves this way
- half of its "if" conditional is nonsense anyway; it picked up a
reference to GIT_TEST_FAIL_PREREQS_INTERNAL in dfe1a17df9 (tests:
add a special setup where prerequisites fail, 2019-05-13) along with
its neighbors, even though it has nothing to do with that flag
We could actually do this without a sub-test at all, and just put our
two tests (one to do cleanup, and one to check that it happened) in the
main script. But doing it in a subtest is conceptually cleaner (from the
perspective of the main test script, we are checking only one thing),
and it remains consistent with the "cleanup when failing" test directly
after it, which has to happen in a sub-test (to avoid the main script
complaining of the failed test).

We test the behavior of prerequisites in t0000 by setting up fake ones
in the main test script, trying to run some tests, and then seeing if
those tests impacted the environment correctly. If they didn't, then we
write a message and manually call exit.
Instead, let's push these down into a sub-test, like many of the other
tests covering the framework itself. This has a few advantages:
- it does not pollute the test output with mention of skipped tests
(that we know are uninteresting -- the point of the test was to see
that these are skipped).
- when running in a TAP harness, we get a useful test failure message
(whereas when the script exits early, a tool like "prove" simply
says "Dubious, test returned 1").
- we do not have to worry about different test environments, such as
when GIT_TEST_FAIL_PREREQS_INTERNAL is set. Our sub-test helpers
already give us a known environment.
- the tests themselves are a bit easier to read, as we can just check
the test-framework output to see what happened (and get the usual
test_cmp diff if it failed)
A few notes on the implementation:
- we could do one sub-test per each individual test_expect_success. I
broke it up here into a few logical groups, as I think this makes it
more readable
- the original tests modified environment variables inside the test
bodies. Instead, I've used "true" as the body of a test we expect to
run and "false" otherwise. Technically this does not confirm that
the body of the "true" test actually ran. We are trusting the
framework output to believe that it truly ran, which is sufficient
for these tests. And I think the end result is much simpler to
follow.
- the nested_prereq test uses a few bare "test -f" calls; I converted
these to our usual test_path_is_* helpers while moving the code
around.

A lazily defined test prerequisite can now be defined in terms of
another lazily defined test prerequisite.
* sg/tests-prereq:
tests: fix description of 'test_set_prereq'
tests: make sure nested lazy prereqs work reliably
Some test prereqs depend on other prereqs, so in a couple of cases we
have nested prereqs that look something like this:
test_lazy_prereq FOO '
test_have_prereq BAR &&
check-foo
'
This can be problematic, because lazy prereqs are evaluated in the
'$TRASH_DIRECTORY/prereq-test-dir' directory, which is the same for
every prereq, and which is automatically removed after the prereq has
been evaluated. So if the inner prereq (BAR above) is a lazy prereq
that hasn't been evaluated yet, then after its evaluation the
'prereq-test-dir' shared with the outer prereq will be removed.
Consequently, 'check-foo' will find itself in a non-existing
directory, and won't be able to create/access any files in its cwd,
which could result in an unfulfilled outer prereq.
Luckily, this doesn't affect any of our current nested prereqs, either
because the inner prereq is not a lazy prereq (e.g. MINGW, CYGWIN or
PERL), or because the outer prereq happens to be checked without
touching any paths in its cwd (GPGSM and RFC1991 in 'lib-gpg.sh').
So to prevent nested prereqs from interfering with each other let's
evaluate each prereq in its own dedicated directory by appending the
prereq's name to the directory name, e.g. 'prereq-test-dir-SYMLINKS'.
In the test we check not only that the prereq test dir is still there,
but also that the inner prereq can't mess with the outer prereq's
files.

the list. Also, I often find myself wanting to run just one or a couple
tests from the test file, but I don't know the numbering of any of the
tests -- to get it I either have to first run the whole test file (or
start counting by hand or figure out some other clever but non-obvious
tricks). It's really convenient to be able to just look at the test
description(s) and then run
./t6416-recursive-corner-cases.sh --run=symlink
or
./t6402-merge-rename.sh --run='setup,unnecessary update'

In some tests, we have data files which are written with a particular
hash algorithm. Instead of keeping two copies of the test files, we can
keep one, and translate the value on the fly.
In order to do so, we'll need to read both the source algorithm and the
current algorithm, so add an optional flag to the test_oid helper that
lets us look up a value for a specified hash algorithm. This should
not cause any conflicts with existing tests, since key arguments to

In previous commits, we removed the usage of test_must_fail() for most
commands except for a set of pre-approved commands. Since that's done,
only allow test_must_fail() to run those pre-approved commands.
Obviously, we should allow `git`.
We allow `__git*` as some completion functions return an error code that
comes from a git invocation. It's good to avoid using test_must_fail
unnecessarily but it wouldn't hurt to err on the side of caution when
we're potentially wrapping a git command (like in these cases).
We also allow `test-tool` and `test-svn-fe` because these are helper
commands that are written by us and we want to catch their failure.
Finally, we allow `test_terminal` because `test_terminal` just wraps
around git commands. Also, we cannot rewrite
`test_must_fail test_terminal` as `test_terminal test_must_fail` because
test_must_fail() is a shell function and as a result, it cannot be
invoked from the test-terminal Perl script.
We opted to explicitly list the above tools instead of using a catch-all
such as `test[-_]*` because we want to be as restrictive as possible so
that in the future, someone would not accidentally introduce an
unrelated usage of test_must_fail() on an "unapproved" command.

The test added by 477dcaddb6 (tests: do not let lazy prereqs inside

that traces a test with a lazy prereq, like:

That won't work if GIT_TEST_FAIL_PREREQS is set in the environment,
because our have_prereq will report failure, and we won't run the echo

We could work around this by avoiding the &&-chain, but we can

the test-suite itself; the outer test snippet should be in charge of the

The `test_expect_*` functions use `test_eval_` and so does
`test_run_lazy_prereq_`. If tracing is enabled via the `-x` option,
`test_eval_` turns on tracing while evaluating the code block, and turns
it off directly after it.
This is unwanted for nested invocations.
One somewhat surprising example of this is when running a test that
calls `test_i18ngrep`: that function requires the `C_LOCALE_OUTPUT`
prereq, and that prereq is a lazy one, so it is evaluated via
`test_eval_`, the command tracing is turned off, and the test case
continues to run _without tracing the commands_.
Another somewhat surprising example is when one lazy prereq depends on
another lazy prereq: the former will call `test_have_prereq` with the
latter one, which in turn calls `test_eval_` and -- you guessed it --
tracing (if enabled) will be turned off _before_ returning to evaluating
the other lazy prereq.
As we will introduce just such a scenario with the GPG, GPGSM and
RFC1991 prereqs, let's fix that by introducing a variable that keeps
track of the current trace level: nested `test_eval_` calls will
increment and then decrement the level, and only when it reaches 0, the
tracing will _actually_ be turned off.

Since 3b072c577b (tests: replace test_tristate with "git env--helper",
2019-06-21) we get the normalized bool values of various GIT_TEST_*
environment variables via 'git env--helper'. Now, while the 'git
env--helper' command itself does catch invalid values in the
environment variable or in the given --default and exits with error
(exit code 128 or 129, respectively), it's invoked in conditions like
'if ! git env--helper ...', which means that all invalid bool values
are interpreted the same as the ordinary 'false' (exit code 1). This
has led to inadvertently skipped httpd tests in our CI builds for a
couple of weeks, see 3960290675 (ci: restore running httpd tests,
2019-09-06).
Let's be more careful about what the test suite accepts as bool values
in GIT_TEST_* environment variables, and error out loud and clear on
invalid values instead of simply skipping tests. Add the
'test_bool_env' helper function to encapsulate the invocation of 'git
env--helper' and the verification of its exit code, and replace all
invocations of that command in our test framework and test suite with
a call to this new helper (except in 't0017-env-helper.sh', of
course).

According to POSIX enhancement request '0000767: Add built-in
"local"'[1],
dash only allows one variable in a local definition; it permits
assignment though it doesn't document that clearly.
however, this isn't true since t0000 still passes with this patch
applied on dash 0.5.10.2. Needless to say, since `local` isn't POSIX
standardized, it is not exactly clear what `local` entails on different
versions of different shells.
We currently already have many instances of multiple local assignments
in our codebase. Ensure that this is actually supported by explicitly
testing that it is sane.

Currently, the tests for GIT_SKIP_TESTS do not cover the situation where
we skip an entire test suite. The tests also do not cover the situation
where we have GIT_SKIP_TESTS defined but the test suite does not match.
Add two test cases so we cover this blindspot.

The first line of verbose output from each test piece now carries
the test name and number to help scanning with eyeballs.
* sg/show-failed-test-names:
tests: show the test name and number at the start of verbose output
t0000-basic: use realistic test script names in the verbose tests
Commit 01d3a526ad (t0000: check whether the shell supports the "local"
keyword, 2017-10-26) added a test to gather data on whether people run
the test suite with shells that don't support "local".
After almost two years, nobody has complained, and several other uses
have cropped up in test-lib-functions.sh. Let's declare it acceptable to
use.

The verbose output of every test looks something like this:
expecting success:
echo content >file &&
git add file &&
git commit -m "add file"
[master (root-commit) d1fbfbd] add file
Author: A U Thor <author@example.com>
1 file changed, 1 insertion(+)
create mode 100644 file
ok 1 - commit works
i.e. first an "expecting success" (or "checking known breakage") line
followed by the commands to be executed, then the output of those
comamnds, and finally an "ok"/"not ok" line containing the test name.
Note that the test's name is only shown at the very end.
With '-x' tracing enabled and/or in longer tests the verbose output
might be several screenfulls long, making it harder than necessary to
find where the output of the test with a given name starts (especially
when the outputs to different file descriptors are racing, and the
"expecting success"/command block arrives earlier than the "ok" line
of the previous test).
Print the test name at the start of the test's verbose output, i.e. at
the end of the "expecting success" and "checking known breakage"
lines, to make the start of a particular test a bit easier to
recognize. Also print the test script and test case numbers, to help
those poor souls who regularly have to scan through the combined
verbose output of several test scripts.
So the dummy test above would start like this:
expecting success of 9999.1 'commit works':
echo content >file &&

Our test scripts are named something like 't1234-command.sh', but the
script names used in 't0000-basic.sh' don't follow this naming
convention. Normally this doesn't matter, because the test scripts
themselves don't care how they are called. However, the next patch
will start to include the test number in the test's verbose output, so
the test script's name will matter in the two tests checking the
verbose output.
Update the tests 'test --verbose' and 'test --verbose-only' to follow
out test script naming convention.
Leave the other tests in 't0000' unchanged: changing the names of
their test scripts would be only pointless code churn.

Change the GIT_TEST_FAIL_PREREQS variable from being "non-empty?" to
being a more standard boolean variable. I recently added the variable
in dfe1a17df9 ("tests: add a special setup where prerequisites fail",
2019-05-13), having to add another "non-empty?" special-case is what
prompted me to write the "git env--helper" utility being used here.
Converting this one is a bit tricky since we use it so early and
frequently in the guts of the test code itself, so let's set a
GIT_TEST_FAIL_PREREQS_INTERNAL which can be tested with the old "test
-n" for the purposes of the shell code, and change the user-exposed
and documented GIT_TEST_FAIL_PREREQS variable to a boolean.

As discussed in [1] there's a regression in the "pu" branch now
because a new test implicitly assumed that a previous test guarded by
a prerequisite had been run. Add a "GIT_TEST_FAIL_PREREQS" special
test setup where we'll skip (nearly) all tests guarded by
prerequisites, allowing us to easily emulate those platform where we
don't run these tests.
As noted in the documentation I'm adding I'm whitelisting the SYMLINKS
prerequisite for now. A lot of tests started failing if we lied about
not supporting symlinks. It's also unlikely that we'll have a failing
test due to a hard dependency on symlinks without that being the
obvious cause, so for now it's not worth the effort to make it work.

When running Apache, 'git daemon', or p4d, we want to kill them at the
end of the test script, otherwise a leftover daemon process will keep
its port open indefinitely, and thus will interfere with subsequent
executions of the same test script.
So far, we stop these daemon processes "manually", i.e.:
- by registering functions or commands in the trap on EXIT to stop
the daemon while preserving the last seen exit code before the
trap (to deal with a failure when run with '--immediate' or with
interrupts by ctrl-C),
- and by invoking these functions/commands last thing before
'test_done' (and sometimes restoring the test framework's default
trap on EXIT, to prevent the daemons from being killed twice).
On one hand, we do this inconsistently, e.g. 'git p4' tests invoke
different functions in the trap on EXIT and in the last test before
'test_done', and they neither restore the test framework's default trap
on EXIT nor preserve the last seen exit code. On the other hand, this
is error prone, because, as shown in a previous patch in this series,
any output from the cleanup commands in the trap on EXIT can prevent a
proper cleanup when a test script run with '--verbose-log' and certain
shells, notably 'dash', is interrupted.
Let's introduce 'test_atexit', which is loosely modeled after
'test_when_finished', but has a broader scope: rather than running the
commands after the current test case, run them when the test script
finishes, and also run them when the test is interrupted, or exits
early in case of a failure while the '--immediate' option is in
effect.
When running the cleanup commands at the end of a successful test,
then they will be run in 'test_done' before it removes the trash
directory, i.e. the cleanup commands will still be able to access any
pidfiles or socket files in there. When running the cleanup commands
after an interrupt or failure with '--immediate', then they will be
run in the trap on EXIT. In both cases they will be run in
'test_eval_', i.e. both standard error and output of all cleanup
commands will go where they should according to the '-v' or
'--verbose-log' options, and thus won't cause any troubles when
interrupting a test script run with '--verbose-log'.

Change the GETTEXT_POISON compile-time + runtime GIT_GETTEXT_POISON
test parameter to only be a GIT_TEST_GETTEXT_POISON=<non-empty?>
runtime parameter, to be consistent with other parameters documented
in "Running tests with special setups" in t/README.
When I added GETTEXT_POISON in bb946bba76 ("i18n: add GETTEXT_POISON
to simulate unfriendly translator", 2011-02-22) I was concerned with
ensuring that the _() function would get constant folded if NO_GETTEXT
was defined, and likewise that GETTEXT_POISON would be compiled out
unless it was defined.
But as the benchmark in my [1] shows doing a one-off runtime
getenv("GIT_TEST_[...]") is trivial, and since GETTEXT_POISON was
originally added the GIT_TEST_* env variables have become the common
idiom for turning on special test setups.
So change GETTEXT_POISON to work the same way. Now the
GETTEXT_POISON=YesPlease compile-time option is gone, and running the
tests with GIT_TEST_GETTEXT_POISON=[YesPlease|] can be toggled on/off
without recompiling.
This allows for conditionally amending tests to test with/without
poison, similar to what 859fdc0c3c ("commit-graph: define
GIT_TEST_COMMIT_GRAPH", 2018-08-29) did for GIT_TEST_COMMIT_GRAPH. Do
some of that, now we e.g. always run the t0205-gettext-poison.sh test.
I did enough there to remove the GETTEXT_POISON prerequisite, but its
inverse C_LOCALE_OUTPUT is still around, and surely some tests using
it can be converted to e.g. always set GIT_TEST_GETTEXT_POISON=.
Notes on the implementation:
* We still compile a dedicated GETTEXT_POISON build in Travis
CI. Perhaps this should be revisited and integrated into the
"linux-gcc" build, see ae59a4e44f ("travis: run tests with
GIT_TEST_SPLIT_INDEX", 2018-01-07) for prior art in that area. Then
again maybe not, see [2].
* We now skip a test in t0000-basic.sh under
GIT_TEST_GETTEXT_POISON=YesPlease that wasn't skipped before. This
test relies on C locale output, but due to an edge case in how the
previous implementation of GETTEXT_POISON worked (reading it from
GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS) wasn't enabling poison correctly. Now it does,
and needs to be skipped.
* The getenv() function is not reentrant, so out of paranoia about
code of the form:
printf(_("%s"), getenv("some-env"));
call use_gettext_poison() in our early setup in git_setup_gettext()
so we populate the "poison_requested" variable in a codepath that's
won't suffer from that race condition.
* We error out in the Makefile if you're still saying
GETTEXT_POISON=YesPlease to prompt users to change their
invocation.
* We should not print out poisoned messages during the test
initialization itself to keep it more readable, so the test library
hides the variable if set in $GIT_TEST_GETTEXT_POISON_ORIG during
setup. See [3].
See also [4] for more on the motivation behind this patch, and the
history of the GETTEXT_POISON facility.
