tests: turn GPG, GPGSM and RFC1991 into lazy prereqs The code to set those prereqs is executed completely outside of any `test_eval_` block. As a consequence, its output had to be suppressed so that it does not clutter the output of a regular test script run. Unfortunately, the output *stays* suppressed even when the `--verbose` option is in effect. This hid important output when debugging why the GPG prereq was not enabled in the Windows part of our CI builds. In preparation for fixing that, let's move all of this code into lazy prereqs. The only slightly tricky part is the global environment variable `GNUPGHOME`. Originally, it was configured only when we verified that there is a `gpg` in the `PATH` that we can use. This is now no longer possible, as lazy prereqs are evaluated in a subshell that changes the working directory to a temporary one. Therefore, we simply _always_ set that environment variable: it does not hurt anything because it does not indicate the presence of a working GPG. Side note: it was quite tempting to use a hack that is possible because we do not validate what is passed to `test_lazy_prereq` (and it is therefore possible to "break out" of the lazy_prereq subshell: test_lazy_prereq GPG '...) && GNUPGHOME=... && (...' However, this is rather tricksy hobbitses code, and the current patch is _much_ easier to understand.

Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals.
Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License version 2 (some parts of it are under different licenses, compatible with the GPLv2). It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net.
Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.
Many Git online resources are accessible from https://git-scm.com/ including full documentation and Git related tools.
See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see Documentation/giteveryday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and Documentation/git-<commandname>.txt
for documentation of each command. If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be read with man gittutorial
or git help tutorial
, and the documentation of each command with man git-<commandname>
or git help <commandname>
.
CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt (man gitcvs-migration
or git help cvs-migration
if git is installed).
The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission). To subscribe to the list, send an email with just “subscribe git” in the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are available at https://lore.kernel.org/git/, http://marc.info/?l=git and other archival sites.
Issues which are security relevant should be disclosed privately to the Git Security mailing list git-security@googlegroups.com.
The maintainer frequently sends the “What's cooking” reports that list the current status of various development topics to the mailing list. The discussion following them give a good reference for project status, development direction and remaining tasks.
The name “git” was given by Linus Torvalds when he wrote the very first version. He described the tool as “the stupid content tracker” and the name as (depending on your mood):
