I wonder if we could do something more black-box. What we really care about here is not the exact output, but rather that "-o foo.zip" produces the same output as "--format zip". Could we do that without even relying on ZIP? I think it should follow even for tgz, because we use "-n" for a repeatable output. But there we are relying on an external gzip just to _create_ the file, so we'd still need the GZIP prereq. Hmm. Looks like we already have a similar test in t5003. So maybe just: diff --git a/t/t5003-archive-zip.sh b/t/t5003-archive-zip.sh index 55c7870997..cf19f56924 100755 --- a/t/t5003-archive-zip.sh +++ b/t/t5003-archive-zip.sh @@ -158,11 +158,16 @@ test_expect_success 'git archive --format=zip with --output' \ 'git archive --format=zip --output=d2.zip HEAD && test_cmp_bin d.zip d2.zip' -test_expect_success 'git archive with --output, inferring format' ' +test_expect_success 'git archive with --output, inferring format (local)' ' git archive --output=d3.zip HEAD && test_cmp_bin d.zip d3.zip ' +test_expect_success 'git archive with --output, ferring format (remote)' ' + git archive --remote=. --output=d4.zip HEAD && + test_cmp_bin d.zip d4.zip +' + test_expect_success \ 'git archive --format=zip with prefix' \ 'git archive --format=zip --prefix=prefix/ HEAD >e.zip' which I think exposes the bug and can run everywhere? -Peff
