We want to test different combinations of merge.conflictstyle, and a new
file is the best place to do that.

This seems to duplicate the behavior of test_write_lines()...

... which could be used here instead:

Right, I'll update the patch.

The above function is used in:

  t6440-config-conflict-markers.sh
  t7201-co.sh

So those two probably should be updated.

Cheers.

I'm not sure what this particular tests adds over the existing ones in 
t6427-diff3-conflict-markers.sh. The commit message does not explain why 
a new file is better than adding this test to that file. There are 
already diff3 tests for checkout so it ends up being confusing when a 
checkout test gets added to this file rather than with those tests later 
in the series because there is no longer a single location for diff3 
checkout tests.

! grep "|"  would be simpler and just as effective. This is quite a weak 
test, something like "^|||||| " would be a stronger test for conflict 
markers

That file is for diff3 conflict markers. The tests in this file are not.

Because there's no file that is testing for this.

> There are already diff3 tests for checkout

This file is not doing diff3 tests.


As stated above, it's testing different *combinations* of
merge.conflictstyle, diff3 is only *one* of the possibilities, another
possibility is:

  git -c merge.conflictstyle=diff3 checkout -m --conflict=merge

That is *not* a diff3 test.

But that would fail if there's a "command1 | command2".

But that doesn't work in all the tests.

Cheers.

I think that is an artificial distinction, it is testing the behavior of 
checkout when merge.conflictStyle=diff3 just like the other tests, it 
just happens to be checking that the config option can be combined with 
a command line option.

I don't understand. What are you expecting content to contain? Why 
doesn't "\|+" fail in that case?

So test for what you actually expect, you don't need to have the same 
check in all the tests if the expected output is different.

That is one of the things it's testing, it's not the only thing it's
testing, it's testing other things as well.

Not a sequence of |.

It would, perhaps "\|\|+" would be better, or maybe "\|{2,}".

I don't need to, but it makes the tests simpler, and as you pointed out
in another comment: more tests are needed.

Perhaps once we know exactly what we want to test, and how to fix the
current issues it would make sense to revisit these.

The point of my original comment was that you do not need an ERE - 'grep 
"||"' matches the same set of lines as 'grep -E "\|\|+"'. As it is 
testing for conflict markers anchoring the pattern to the beginning of a 
line would probably be a good idea.

Right, I didn't add that because I saw some tests not doing ^ when they
clearly should, so I thought perhaps there was a compatibility issue,
but now I see that ^ is already used in many tests, therefore "^\|\|+"
makes sense.
