I actually do not like the interface to use two variables very much.
Can't we just allow negative entries on "to be skipped" list?
That is
GIT_SKIP_TESTS='t9??? !t91??'
would skip nine-thousand series, but would run 91xx series, and all
the others are not excluded.
Simple rules to consider:
- If the list consists of _only_ negated patterns, pretend that
there is "unless otherwise specified with negatives, skip all
tests", i.e. treat GIT_SKIP_TESTS='!t91??' just the same way you
would treat GIT_SKIP_TESTS='* !t91??'.
- The orders should not matter for simplicity of the semantics;
before running each test, check if it matches any negative (and
run it if it matches, without looking at any positives), and
otherwise check if it matches any positive (and skip it if it
does not).
Hmm?
