From 83228f16611eae979421915836c5416eb4d02cf3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Schindelin Date: Sun, 26 Apr 2026 14:38:34 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] ls-files tests: filter `.gitconfig` from `--others` output The global `safe.bareRepository=all` setting in test-lib.sh is written to `$HOME/.gitconfig`, which unfortunately lives inside the test repository's working tree. The `.git/info/exclude` entry added alongside it handles most commands, but `git ls-files --others` without `--exclude-standard` does not consult `info/exclude` at all, so the file appears in the output. Ideally, each test that accesses a bare repository would simply specify `--git-dir` or `GIT_DIR` explicitly, which would require no global config and produce no side effects in the working tree. As that approach was not taken, filter `.gitconfig` from the output before comparing against expected results. In t7104, the test already uses `--exclude-standard`, so it suffices to switch from the bare `git ls-files -o` to `git ls-files -o --exclude-standard` which respects the `info/exclude` entry; the other tests deliberately omit `--exclude-standard` because their purpose is to verify unfiltered `--others` output.
