Subject: [PATCH v4 0/2] ci: link failure and leak annotations to the test script
Date: Thu, 01 Oct 2026 18:44:13 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <pull.2419.v4.git.git.1790880255.gitgitgadget@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <pull.2419.git.git.1790362443893.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
Link failure and leak annotations in CI to the test script, so both can be
found from the job summary.
V4 CI Job where failures and leaks are reported:
https://github.com/git/git/actions/runs/36760014277/job/110039964565?pr=2426
Changes in v4:
* Clarify commit messages and simplify escaping logic.
Changes in v3:
* Fixed bug in the --immediate exit ordering: the --immediate &&
--invert-exit-code path called exit 0 before the test's annotation was
written, now a single unconditional call covers both exit paths.
* github_escape_message_ no longer relies on \r being a portable sed escape
sequence (not POSIX-guaranteed and BSD sed implementations can differ),
it splices in the literal carriage-return byte via printf instead.
* Reverted unrelated test-tool line back to its original form.
Changes in v2:
* Split into two commits, each explaining its own reasoning.
* Leak output is no longer capped or embedded in the message, it's now an
uncapped fold, so multiple leaks in the same test both show in full. A
second leak in a different test still won't show in the same run,
--immediate stops the script at the first failure, but it no longer gets
buried under every later test falsely reporting "not ok" either.
* Drops the giant unfolded message that annotations used to carry, which is
what probably caused the scrolling behavior.

Give a leak its own annotation. Point it at the test script, the exact
line isn't known, only which script the leak turned up in, and put the

A test failure or a fixed known breakage gets an annotation that names

Find the line a test is defined on by searching the script for its

- A GitHub annotation is a single line, and a test description is always

- carriage return's own encoding would be mangled by a `%` substitution
