Subject: [PATCH 03/16] t2018: use test_must_fail for failing git commands
Date: Fri, 27 Dec 2019 08:47:12 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <c584c9a52b492db2128846e86afb0aadddd6f2de.1577454401.git.liu.denton@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1577454401.git.liu.denton@gmail.com>

Before, when we expected `git diff` to fail, we negated its status with
`!`. However, if git ever exits unexpectedly, say due to a segfault, we
would not be able to tell the difference between that and a controlled
failure. Use `test_must_fail git diff` instead so that if an unepxected
failure occurs, we can catch it.

We had some instances of `test_must_fail test_dirty_{un,}mergable`.
However, `test_must_fail` should only be used on git commands. Teach
test_dirty_{un,}mergable() to accept `!` as a potential first argument
which will run the git command without test_must_fail(). This prevents
the double-negation where we were effectively running
`test_must_fail test_must_fail git diff ...`.

While we're at it, remove redirections to /dev/null since output is
silenced when running without `-v` and debugging output is useful with
`-v`, remove redirections to /dev/null as it is not useful.
