Change an argument to test_line_count (which'll ultimately be turned
into a "test" expression) to use "-gt" instead of ">" for an
arithmetic test.
This broken on e.g. OpenBSD as of v2.13.0 with my commit
ac3f5a3468 ("ref-filter: add --no-contains option to
tag/branch/for-each-ref", 2017-03-24).
Upstream just worked around it by patching git and didn't tell us
about it, I discovered this when reading various Git packaging
implementations: https://github.com/openbsd/ports/commit/7e48bf88a20Thanks for finding and relaying this.
Signed-off-by: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason <redacted> --- David, it would be great to get a quick bug report to git@vger.kernel.org if you end up having to monkeypatch something we've done. We won't bite, promise :)
Yeah. I was hoping that your new list for platform porters would help communicate these issues easier for those who are a bit shy to be on this general development list ;-)

As shown in that linked Github commit OpenBSD has another recent workaround in turning on DIR_HAS_BSD_GROUP_SEMANTICS and skipping a related test, maybe René can make more sense of that? There's more patches in their ports which indicate possible bugs of ours: https://github.com/openbsd/ports/tree/master/devel/git/patches/ t/t7004-tag.sh | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-)diff --git a/t/t7004-tag.sh b/t/t7004-tag.sh index 0ef7b94394..0e2e57aa3d 100755 --- a/t/t7004-tag.sh +++ b/t/t7004-tag.sh@@ -1887,7 +1887,7 @@ EOF" run_with_limited_stack git tag --contains HEAD >actual && test_cmp expect actual && run_with_limited_stack git tag --no-contains HEAD >actual && - test_line_count ">" 10 actual + test_line_count "-gt" 10 actual ' test_expect_success '--format should list tags as per format given' '
