Subject: [PATCH 1/2] t0014: factor out choice of deprecated commands
Date: Tue, 28 Jul 2026 10:37:26 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260728143726.GA41686@coredump.intra.peff.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260728143653.GB11894@coredump.intra.peff.net>

We have a few tests related to aliasing deprecated commands which use
"whatchanged" and "pack-redundant", as these are the only two deprecated
commands we have. Let's pull those names into variables so that we can
refactor the tests without relying on the specific names.

Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net>

I pulled this into its own patch because it's so noisy, but it could be
squashed with the subsequent one.
