This is a bug report which provides an additional instance of a problem
originally reported to the perl.qa mailing list/newsgroup (thread
starting at: http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.qa/2017/01/msg13734.html).
I have a VM of FreeBSD-10.3 in which I customarily test blead and/or
smoke-me branches in the Perl 5 core distribution. When I wish to test
a smoke-me branch, I set the first line of
'p5smoke/install/smokecurrent.gitbranch' to the name of that branch as
it appears on remote 'origin'. I then call 'cd ~/p5smoke/install; sh
./smokecurrent.sh' and let Test-Smoke do its thing.
On Jan 26 at about 2200 localtime (Jan 27 0300 UTC) I conducted a smoke
test run on the 'smoke-me/jkeenan/130635-storable' branch:
#####
$ grep -n smoke_branch jsnd6115793d6cc41755a3ed4baaa38d30653656f41.jsn
85: "smoke_branch" : "smoke-me/jkeenan/130635-storable",
#####
The smoke test run -- whose report you can see at
http://perl5.test-smoke.org/report/53530 -- resulted in FAILs:
#####
Failures: (common-args) -Doptimize="-O2 -pipe -fstack-protector
-fno-strict-aliasing"
[stdio/perlio] -DDEBUGGING -Duseithreads
../t/porting/exec-bit.t.....................................FAILED
97-98
../t/porting/podcheck.t.....................................FAILED
183
#####
These failures had nothing to do with the branch being smoked. That
branch had been created minutes earlier by pushing one commit on top of
Perl 5 blead. Those failures occurred in blead, originating in this commit:
#####

I switched to a separate git checkout directory that I maintain on the
same VM, updated and tested blead, confirmed and corrected the two test
failures and pushed the corrections to blead.
#####
commit 475b224feea308464e18cc6bef788e7a152afa51

Correct file mode and line lengths to keep porting tests happy.
#####
This morning I returned to that VM, moved into p5smoke/install and
updated smokecurrent.gitbranch to have its first line read 'blead':
#####
$ head -5 smokecurrent.gitbranch
blead
smoke-me/jkeenan/130635-storable
smoke-me/jkeenan/revert-cpan-118470
smoke-me/jkeenan/77934-threads
smoke-me/jkeenan/petdance/130519-remove-two-unused-macros
#####
I then called 'sh ./smokecurrent.sh' to kick off another smoke test run,
this time for 'blead'. At that point additional commits had been made
to blead. HEAD was:
#####
commit 9a7b7fba267b8910dbea2920dd675030f796320c

When the smoke test run completed, however, I was surprised to see that
the commit being tested -- HEAD in the p5smoke/perl-current and
p5smoke/git-perl directories -- was still commit
1f74a12bfce8b82144fa7fef29618af1e8023298 -- the commit which caused the
porting test errors and for which I had already pushed corrections to blead!

Not surprisingly, since 'blead' had not been moved forward from the
commit at which the porting test errors were introduced, those errors
were still present:

So why does Test-Smoke not update the branch being tested in cases like
this?
Thank you very much.
