We have a small helper function called "verbose", with the idea that you
can write:
verbose foo
to get a message to stderr when the "foo" command fails, even if it does
not produce any output itself. This goes back to 8ad1652418 (t5304: use
helper to report failure of "test foo = bar", 2014-10-10). It does work,
but overall it has not been a big success for two reasons:
1. Test writers have to remember to put it there (and the resulting
test code is longer as a result).
2. It doesn't handle the opposite case (we expect "foo" to fail, but
it succeeds), leading to inconsistencies in tests (which you can
see in many hunks of this patch, e.g. ones involving "has_cr").
Most importantly, we added a136f6d8ff (test-lib.sh: support -x option
for shell-tracing, 2014-10-10) at the same time, and it does roughly the
same thing. The output is not quite as succinct as "verbose", and you
have to watch out for stray shell-traces ending up in stderr. But it
solves both of the problems above, and has clearly become the preferred
tool.
Let's consider the "verbose" function a failed experiment and remove the
last few callers (which are all many years old, and have been dwindling
as we remove them from scripts we touch for other reasons). It will be
one less thing for new test writers to see and wonder if they should be
using themselves.

In 459b8d22e54 (tests: do not borrow from COPYING and README from the
real source, 2015-02-15) tests that used "lib-diff.sh" (called
"diff-lib.sh" then) were made to stop relying on the top-level COPYING
file, but we still had other tests that referenced it.
Let's move them over to use the "COPYING_test_data" utility function
introduced in the preceding commit, and in the case of the one test
that needed the "README" file use a ROT 13 version of that "COPYING"
test data. That test added in afd222967c6 (Extend testing git-mv for
renaming of subdirectories, 2006-07-26) just needs more test data that's not the same as the "COPYING" test data, so a ROT 13 version will do.
This change removes the last references to ../{README,COPYING} in the
test suite.

Adjust the test so that it computes variables for blobs instead of using
hard-coded hashes.

Many tests that predate the "verbose" helper function use a
pattern like:
test ... || {
echo ...
false
}
to give more verbose output. Using the helper, we can do
this with a single line, and avoid a || which interacts
badly with &&-chaining (besides fooling --chain-lint, we hit
the error block no matter which command in the chain failed,
so we may often show useless results).
In most cases, the messages printed by "verbose" are equally
good (in some cases better; t6006 accidentally redirects the
message to a file!). The exception is t7001, whose output
suffers slightly. However, it's still enough to show the
user which part failed, given that we will have just printed
the test script to stderr.

When a file that ends with an incomplete line is expressed as a
complete rewrite with the -B option, git diff incorrectly
appends the incomplete line indicator "\ No newline at end of
file" after such a line, rather than writing it on a line of its
own (the output codepath for normal output without -B does not
have this problem). Add a LF after the incomplete line before
writing the "\ No newline ..." out to fix this.
Add a couple of tests to confirm that the indicator comment is
generated on its own line in both plain diff and rewrite mode.

When reviewing a patch while concentrating primarily on the text after
then change, wading through pages of deleted text involves a cognitive
burden.
Introduce the -D option that omits the preimage text from the patch output
for deleted files. When used with -B (represent total rewrite as a single
wholesale deletion followed by a single wholesale addition), the preimage
text is also omitted.
To prevent such a patch from being applied by mistake, the output is
designed not to be usable by "git apply" (or GNU "patch"); it is strictly
for human consumption.
It of course is possible to "apply" such a patch by hand, as a human can
read the intention out of such a patch. It however is impossible to apply
such a patch even manually in reverse, as the whole point of this option
is to omit the information necessary to do so from the output.
Initial request by Mart Sõmermaa, documentation and tests helped by
Michael J Gruber.

Many test scripts assumed that they will start in a 'trash' subdirectory
that is a single level down from the t/ directory, and referred to their
test vector files by asking for files like "../t9999/expect". This will
break if we move the 'trash' subdirectory elsewhere.
To solve this, we earlier introduced "$TEST_DIRECTORY" so that they can
refer to t/ directory reliably. This finally makes all the tests use
it to refer to the outside environment.
With this patch, and a one-liner not included here (because it would
contradict with what Dscho really wants to do):
| diff --git a/t/test-lib.sh b/t/test-lib.sh
| index 70ea7e0..60e69e4 100644
| --- a/t/test-lib.sh

| -test="trash directory"
| +test="trash directory/another level/yet another"
| rm -fr "$test" || {
| trap - exit
| echo >&5 "FATAL: Cannot prepare test area"
all the tests still pass, but we would want extra sets of eyeballs on this
type of change to really make sure.

Specifying character ranges in tr differs between System V
and POSIX. In System V, brackets are required (e.g.,
'[A-Z]'), whereas in POSIX they are not.
We can mostly get around this by just using the bracket form
for both sets, as in:
tr '[A-Z] '[a-z]'
in which case POSIX interpets this as "'[' becomes '['",
which is OK.
However, this doesn't work with multiple sequences, like:
# rot13
tr '[A-Z][a-z]' '[N-Z][A-M][n-z][a-m]'
where the POSIX version does not behave the same as the
System V version. In this case, we must simply enumerate the
sequence.
This patch fixes problematic uses of tr in git scripts and
test scripts in one of three ways:
- if a single sequence, make sure it uses brackets
- if multiple sequences, enumerate
- if extra brackets (e.g., tr '[A]' 'a'), eliminate
brackets

663af3422a648e87945e4d8c0cc3e13671f2bbde (Full rework of
quote_c_style and write_name_quoted.) mistakenly used puts()
when writing out a fixed string when it did not want to add a
terminating LF.
