From a78d9258dc1fdfbecf0a60f21a8bb1594a07c442 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?=C3=86var=20Arnfj=C3=B6r=C3=B0=20Bjarmason?= Date: Mon, 27 Feb 2017 11:26:28 +0000 Subject: cvs tests: skip tests that call "cvs commit" when running as root MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Change the tests that fail to when we run the test suite as root, due to calling "cvs commit". The GNU cvs package has an optional compile-time CVS_BADROOT flag. When compiled with this flag "cvs commit" will refuse to commit anything as root. On my Debian box this isn't compiled in[1] in, but on CentOS it is. I've run all the t/t*cvs*.sh tests, and these are the only two that fail. For some reason e.g. t9402-git-cvsserver-refs.sh still works as root despite doing "cvs commit", I haven't dug into why. This commit is technically being overzealous, we could do better by making a mock cvs commit as root and run the tests if that works, but I don't see any compelling reason to bend over backwards to run these tests in all cases, just skipping them as root seems good enough. 1. Per: strings /usr/bin/cvs|grep 'is not allowed to commit' Using cvs 1.11.23 on CentOS, 1.12.13-MirDebian-18 on Debian.
