Unless the tests are moved to contrib, which I think is a good
practice: should anything in contrib break 'make test'? I don't think
so.

You are only looking at one of the uses for this script, when there
are two.

You are correct that distros may install with whatever tweaks of
their own, and to help their tweak process (like the one that
specifically notices "/usr/bin/env python" as you wrote), changing
the "#!/usr/bin/python" to match others would be a good change.

But that change alone is not sufficient for this one, which is used
from t/ script.  You cannot treat this one like import-zips and
hg-to-git that we do not use in-tree.  Somewhere before t9020 uses
it, it needs the treatment similar to the rewriting that is done for
git-p4.py to git-p4.

I disagree. Most of the contrib scripts are expected to be used as
they are. There's no step in the Makefile that will convert them, and
it's up to each distribution to decide what to do with them. This is
what Arch Linux does:

  # more contrib stuff
  cp -a ./contrib/* $pkgdir/usr/share/git/
  # scripts are for python 2.x
  sed -i 's|#![ ]*/usr/bin/env python|#!/usr/bin/env python2|' \
$(find "$pkgdir" -name '*.py') \
"$pkgdir"/usr/lib/git-core/git-p4 \
"$pkgdir"/usr/share/git/gitview/gitview

At some point we might decide to change this, but at the moment
contrib scripts are pretty much stand-alone.

Cheers.

You need a fix for that; didn't I already say "you need a bit more

Yeah, and even if PYTHON_PATH is used, in t9020-remote-svn.sh,
svnrdump.py is used as is.
So if your python is not /usr/bin/python, you cannot just add
something to $PATH to pass the test.

Best regards,
Christian.

That works if somebody managed to export PYTHON_PATH, which very very
often is not the case for me.

./git-p4
zsh: ./git-p4: bad interpreter: /usr/bin/python: no such file or directory

In this case git-p4.py is correct, and git-p4 is not.

Either way, this is for contrib, and we don't have a standard
procedure for python scripts there. /usr/bin/env is better than
nothing, and in the vast majority of cases, more than enough.

Cheers.

I suspect you need a bit more than that.

$ make git-p4
$ diff -u git-p4.py git-p4

shows you how we tell the scripts how to find their interpreters
(that way, there is no need to rely on the existence of
/usr/bin/env).
