The changes to make git-annex test concurrent have
broken using eg git-annex test -p 'concurrent get of dup key regression'
It looks like the repo setup test is not being run, even though it's supposed to be a dependency of the test it was limited to. --Joey
Oh, that seems to be a limitation of tasty. From its docs:
If Test B depends on Test A, remember that either of them may be
filtered out using the --pattern option. Collecting the dependency
info happens after filtering. Therefore, if Test A is filtered out,
Test B will run unconditionally, and if Test B is filtered out,
it simply won't run.
This works:
git-annex test -p '/concurrent get of dup key regression/ || /Init Tests/'Ok, I was able to work around this by having git-annex test add the latter pattern automatically. done --Joey
Well done. Btw if somebody (like me) wonders why their tasty awk patterns '/like this/' don't work with
git-annex test -pin Windows Git Bash, one has to remember that Git Bash is based on Cygwin/Msys and there's a Unix -> Windows path conversion at work. You can stop that conversion by prepending a space to the awk pattern ' /like this/' or by setting the env var MSYS_NO_PATHCONV=1. So basically the above should be formulated as follows in this arguably hobbled environment:
