While I am looking at the test script t/t4014-format-patch.sh for my microproject, I found the usage of test -f for the $filename, sub/$basename and $basename in three tests, but the same file already uses test_path_is_file for pager_used. When the test failed with test_path_is_file, it showed the exact filename it was looking for. With test -f a failure would show nothing useful. Is this a good microproject? I also have a patch ready. Thanks, Siddharthan T V
