Subject: [minor] t1004-read-tree-m-u-wf.sh no more passes when "root"
Date: Tue, 06 May 2008 15:22:30 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <fvpmdn$hq1$1@ger.gmane.org> (raw)
Hello,
as I've been used to building and testing Git as root - granted, this
goes against what INSTALL guidelines suggest - I have noticed the
following : until v1.4.4.4, 'make test' could be successfully run as
"root" ; it now (v1.5.5.1) fails on t1004-read-tree-m-u-wf.sh with
following output:
* FAIL 13: funny symlink in work tree, un-unlink-able
rm -fr a b &&
git reset --hard &&
git checkout sym-a &&
chmod a-w a &&
test_must_fail git read-tree -m -u sym-a sym-a sym-b
Meanwhile I have found out that this isn't a problem for me in practice,
since the test-suite passes when run "as myself", still I report this in
case it could be a clue for something more serious...
Thanks,
Jérôme
