This is even more interesting. I tried your die check, and it definitely
runs the correct version of git.

However, if I run the test directly:

cd t ; sh t3200-branch.sh -v

it passes.

if I run:

make test

that particular test fails. If I have this patch applied, and I run

make t/t3200-branch.sh

it also fails.

I have done this directly on current master branch. So something is
differing between the two test runs.

Also, if I run:

make -C t t3200-branch.sh

that passes, so it really *is* something setup by the main makefile.

Any more suggestions?

Thanks,
Jake

When you say directly, I assume you mean "cd t && ./1234-xxx.sh".
You can also run a single-shot test like:

  cd t && make t1234-...

which may make the environment more like "make test".

Ok, I'll give it a shot. All I know for sure right now is running the
test directly passed and running from "make test" it failed.

I'll see if that makes any difference.

Jake

Are you sure about that?  Try adding something like

  die("I am broken");

at the very beginning of main() in git.c, rebuild your git (i.e.
"make", not "make install")
and then

  $ cd t
  $ sh ./t1234-test.sh -v

for any of the test scripts. You should see any test piece that runs "git" sees
"git" dying with that message.

Otherwise, there is something wrong with git you are building. Unless you have
a patch or two to t/test-lib.sh or something that breaks the test framework, you
should be able to test what you just have built without getting affected by what
is installed in your $PATH. After all, that is how we bootstrap git
from a tarball
without any installed version, and friends do not force friends install without
testing first ;-)

It uses the git from my environment instead of the git I have built,
which is bad since I don't really want to run make install.

What kind of things are missing, exactly?  Perhaps that is something
you need to fix, instead of mucking with the top-level Makefile.

I recall last time when I did a patch like this I was told to look
into "make -C t" ;-)  What is different this round?
