### Apache Cloudberry version
Main branch — introduced by commit 4af1cf5a09bcf5f199e4135db14bb6123987c102
("Movable DataBase Locales for Cloudberry", merged Feb 4 2026).
### What happened
After running any regression test suite, git status shows
src/test/regress/sql/misc.sql as modified (M):
Changes not staged for commit:
modified: src/test/regress/sql/misc.sql
The diff reveals that all @abs_builddir@ placeholders have been replaced
with hardcoded absolute paths:
-COPY onek TO '@abs_builddir@/results/onek.data';
+COPY onek TO '/home/<user>/work/gp95/src/test/regress/results/onek.data';
### What you think should happen instead
src/test/regress/sql/misc.sql should not be tracked by git. It is a
generated file — the test infrastructure reads
src/test/regress/input/misc.source and writes the substituted result to
sql/misc.sql at test runtime.
Specifically, pg_regress.c calls:
convert_sourcefiles_in("input", outputdir, "sql", "sql");
which replaces @abs_builddir@ with the actual build path and writes into
outputdir/sql/misc.sql — overwriting the committed version on every test run.
This relationship is also documented in GNUmakefile: # Line 113: maps
input/*.source → sql/*.sql (generated)
input_files = `$(patsubst $(srcdir)/input/%.source,sql/%.sql, $(wildcard
$(srcdir)/input/*.source))`
Prior to commit 4af1cf5a09b, sql/misc.sql was absent from git (correctly —
it was purely generated). That commit accidentally added it.
