Maybe we should stop introducing un-optimized tests.
For other reasons I just stumbled upon t7064
(porcelain V2 output for git status)
This is how an arbitrary test looks like:
test_expect_success 'staged changes in added submodule (AM S.M.)' '
( cd super_repo &&
## stage the changes in the submodule.
( cd sub1 &&
git add file_in_sub
) &&
HMOD=$(git hash-object -t blob -- .gitmodules) &&
HSUP=$(git rev-parse HEAD) &&
HSUB=$HSUP &&
cat >expect <<-EOF &&
# branch.oid $HSUP
# branch.head master
# branch.upstream origin/master
# branch.ab +0 -0
1 A. N... 000000 100644 100644 $_z40 $HMOD .gitmodules
1 AM S.M. 000000 160000 160000 $_z40 $HSUB sub1
EOF
git status --porcelain=v2 --branch --untracked-files=all >actual &&
test_cmp expect actual
)
'
Following "modern" Git tests I would have expected:
* heavy use of the "git -C <dir>" pattern. When applying that
thouroughly we'd save spanning the subshells.
* no `cd` on the same line as the opening paren.
(This is style and would derail the performance discussion)
test_expect_success 'staged changes in added submodule (AM S.M.)' '
git -C super_repo/sub1 add file_in_sub &&
HMOD=$(git -C super_repo hash-object -t blob -- .gitmodules) &&
HSUP=$(git -C super_repo rev-parse HEAD) &&
# as a comment: HSUB is equal to HSUP, because ...
cat >expect <<-EOF &&
# branch.oid $HSUP
# branch.head master
# branch.upstream origin/master
# branch.ab +0 -0
1 A. N... 000000 100644 100644 $_z40 $HMOD .gitmodules
1 AM S.M. 000000 160000 160000 $_z40 $HSUP sub1
EOF
git -C super_repo status --porcelain=v2 --branch
--untracked-files=all >../actual &&
test_cmp expect actual
'
That said I really like the idea of having a helper that would eliminate the cat
for you, e.g. :
git_test_helper_equal_stdin_or_diff_and_die -C super_repo status
--porcelain=v2 --branch --untracked-files=all <<-EOF
1 A. N... 000000 100644 100644 $_z40 $HMOD .gitmodules
1 AM S.M. 000000 160000 160000 $_z40 $HSUP sub1
EOF
