+Running tests with special setups
+---------------------------------
+
+The whole test suite could be run to test some special features
+that cannot be easily covered by a few specific test cases. These
+could be enabled by running the test suite with correct GIT_TEST_
+environment set.
+
+GIT_TEST_FAIL_PREREQS=<boolean> fails all prerequisites. This is
+useful for discovering issues with the tests where say a later test
+implicitly depends on an optional earlier test.
+
+There's a "FAIL_PREREQS" prerequisite that can be used to test for
+whether this mode is active, and e.g. skip some tests that are hard to
+refactor to deal with it. The "SYMLINKS" prerequisite is currently
+excluded as so much relies on it, but this might change in the future.
+
+GIT_TEST_GETTEXT_POISON=<boolean> turns all strings marked for
+translation into gibberish if true. Used for spotting those tests that
+need to be marked with a C_LOCALE_OUTPUT prerequisite when adding more
+strings for translation. See "Testing marked strings" in po/README for
+details.
+
+GIT_TEST_SPLIT_INDEX=<boolean> forces split-index mode on the whole
+test suite. Accept any boolean values that are accepted by git-config.
+
+GIT_TEST_PROTOCOL_VERSION=<n>, when set, makes 'protocol.version'
+default to n.
+
+GIT_TEST_FULL_IN_PACK_ARRAY=<boolean> exercises the uncommon
+pack-objects code path where there are more than 1024 packs even if
+the actual number of packs in repository is below this limit. Accept
+any boolean values that are accepted by git-config.
+
+GIT_TEST_OE_SIZE=<n> exercises the uncommon pack-objects code path
+where we do not cache object size in memory and read it from existing
+packs on demand. This normally only happens when the object size is
+over 2GB. This variable forces the code path on any object larger than
+<n> bytes.
+
+GIT_TEST_OE_DELTA_SIZE=<n> exercises the uncommon pack-objects code
+path where deltas larger than this limit require extra memory
+allocation for bookkeeping.
+
+GIT_TEST_VALIDATE_INDEX_CACHE_ENTRIES=<boolean> checks that cache-tree
+records are valid when the index is written out or after a merge. This
+is mostly to catch missing invalidation. Default is true.
+
+GIT_TEST_COMMIT_GRAPH=<boolean>, when true, forces the commit-graph to
+be written after every 'git commit' command, and overrides the
+'core.commitGraph' setting to true.
+
+GIT_TEST_COMMIT_GRAPH_CHANGED_PATHS=<boolean>, when true, forces
+commit-graph write to compute and write changed path Bloom filters for
+every 'git commit-graph write', as if the `--changed-paths` option was
+passed in.
+
+GIT_TEST_FSMONITOR=$PWD/t7519/fsmonitor-all exercises the fsmonitor
+code path for utilizing a file system monitor to speed up detecting
+new or changed files.
+
+GIT_TEST_INDEX_VERSION=<n> exercises the index read/write code path
+for the index version specified.  Can be set to any valid version
+(currently 2, 3, or 4).
+
+GIT_TEST_PACK_SPARSE=<boolean> if disabled will default the pack-objects
+builtin to use the non-sparse object walk. This can still be overridden by
+the --sparse command-line argument.
+
+GIT_TEST_PRELOAD_INDEX=<boolean> exercises the preload-index code path
+by overriding the minimum number of cache entries required per thread.
+
+GIT_TEST_ADD_I_USE_BUILTIN=<boolean>, when true, enables the
+built-in version of git add -i. See 'add.interactive.useBuiltin' in
+git-config(1).
+
+GIT_TEST_INDEX_THREADS=<n> enables exercising the multi-threaded loading
+of the index for the whole test suite by bypassing the default number of
+cache entries and thread minimums. Setting this to 1 will make the
+index loading single threaded.
+
+GIT_TEST_MULTI_PACK_INDEX=<boolean>, when true, forces the multi-pack-
+index to be written after every 'git repack' command, and overrides the
+'core.multiPackIndex' setting to true.
+
+GIT_TEST_SIDEBAND_ALL=<boolean>, when true, overrides the
+'uploadpack.allowSidebandAll' setting to true, and when false, forces
+fetch-pack to not request sideband-all (even if the server advertises
+sideband-all).
+
+GIT_TEST_DISALLOW_ABBREVIATED_OPTIONS=<boolean>, when true (which is
+the default when running tests), errors out when an abbreviated option
+is used.

+# At present, only &&-chains in subshells are examined by this linter;
+# top-level &&-chains are instead checked directly by the test framework. Like
+# the top-level &&-chain linter, the subshell linter (intentionally) does not
+# check &&-chains within {...} blocks.
+#
+# Checking for &&-chain breakage is done line-by-line by pure textual
+# inspection.
+#
+# Incomplete lines (those ending with "\") are stitched together with following
+# lines to simplify processing, particularly of "one-liner" statements.
+# Top-level here-docs are swallowed to avoid false positives within the
+# here-doc body, although the statement to which the here-doc is attached is
+# retained.
+#
+# Heuristics are used to detect end-of-subshell when the closing ")" is cuddled
+# with the final subshell statement on the same line:
+#
+#    (cd foo &&
+#        bar)
+#
+# in order to avoid misinterpreting the ")" in constructs such as "x=$(...)"
+# and "case $x in *)" as ending the subshell.
+#
+# Lines missing a final "&&" are flagged with "?!AMP?!", and lines which chain
+# commands with ";" internally rather than "&&" are flagged "?!SEMI?!". A line
+# may be flagged for both violations.
+#
+# Detection of a missing &&-link in a multi-line subshell is complicated by the
+# fact that the last statement before the closing ")" must not end with "&&".
+# Since processing is line-by-line, it is not known whether a missing "&&" is
+# legitimate or not until the _next_ line is seen. To accommodate this, within
+# multi-line subshells, each line is stored in sed's "hold" area until after
+# the next line is seen and processed. If the next line is a stand-alone ")",
+# then a missing "&&" on the previous line is legitimate; otherwise a missing
+# "&&" is a break in the &&-chain.

+#    (
+#         cd foo &&
+#         bar
+#    )
+#
+# In practical terms, when "bar" is encountered, it is flagged with "?!AMP?!",
+# but when the stand-alone ")" line is seen which closes the subshell, the
+# "?!AMP?!" violation is removed from the "bar" line (retrieved from the "hold"
+# area) since the final statement of a subshell must not end with "&&". The
+# final line of a subshell may still break the &&-chain by using ";" internally
+# to chain commands together rather than "&&", so "?!SEMI?!" is never removed
+# from a line (even though "?!AMP?!" might be).

+# Care is taken to recognize the last _statement_ of a multi-line subshell, not
+# necessarily the last textual _line_ within the subshell, since &&-chaining
+# applies to statements, not to lines. Consequently, blank lines, comment
+# lines, and here-docs are swallowed (but not the command to which the here-doc
+# is attached), leaving the last statement in the "hold" area, not the last
+# line, thus simplifying &&-link checking.
+#
+# The final statement before "done" in for- and while-loops, and before "elif",
+# "else", and "fi" in if-then-else likewise must not end with "&&", thus
+# receives similar treatment.
+#
+# Swallowing here-docs with arbitrary tags requires a bit of finesse. When a
+# line such as "cat <<EOF >out" is seen, the here-doc tag is moved to the front
+# of the line enclosed in angle brackets as a sentinel, giving "<EOF>cat >out".
+# As each subsequent line is read, it is appended to the target line and a
+# (whitespace-loose) back-reference match /^<(.*)>\n\1$/ is attempted to see if
+# the content inside "<...>" matches the entirety of the newly-read line. For
+# instance, if the next line read is "some data", when concatenated with the
+# target line, it becomes "<EOF>cat >out\nsome data", and a match is attempted
+# to see if "EOF" matches "some data". Since it doesn't, the next line is
+# attempted. When a line consisting of only "EOF" (and possible whitespace) is
+# encountered, it is appended to the target line giving "<EOF>cat >out\nEOF",
+# in which case the "EOF" inside "<...>" does match the text following the
+# newline, thus the closing here-doc tag has been found. The closing tag line
+# and the "<...>" prefix on the target line are then discarded, leaving just
+# the target line "cat >out".
+#
+# To facilitate regression testing (and manual debugging), a ">" annotation is
+# applied to the line containing ")" which closes a subshell, ">>" to a line
+# closing a nested subshell, and ">>>" to a line closing both at once. This
+# makes it easy to detect whether the heuristics correctly identify
+# end-of-subshell.

+This directory contains various per-hash values that are used in the testsuite.

+Each file contains lines containing a key-value pair; blank lines and lines
+starting with `#` are ignored.  The key and value are separated by whitespace
+(specifically, those whitespace in the default `$IFS`).  The key consists only
+of shell identifier characters, and the value consists of a hash algorithm,
+colon, and value.  The hash algorithm also consists only of shell identifier
+characters; it should match the value in sha1-file.c.
+
+For example, the following lines map the key "rawsz" to "20" if SHA-1 is in use
+and to "32" if SHA-256 is in use:
+
+----
+rawsz sha1:20
+rawsz sha256:32
+----
+
+The keys and values used here are loaded by `test_oid_init` (see the README file
+in the "t" directory) and are used by calling `test_oid`.

   While we have tried to make sure that it can cope with embedded
   whitespace and other special characters, it will not work with
   multi-line data.
+
+Rather than tracking the performance by run-time as `test_perf` does, you
+may also track output size by using `test_size`. The stdout of the
+function should be a single numeric value, which will be captured and
+shown in the aggregated output. For example:
+
+	test_perf 'time foo' '
+		./foo >foo.out
+	'
+
+	test_size 'output size'
+		wc -c <foo.out
+	'
+
+might produce output like:
+
+	Test                origin           HEAD
+	-------------------------------------------------------------
+	1234.1 time foo     0.37(0.79+0.02)  0.26(0.51+0.02) -29.7%
+	1234.2 output size             4.3M             3.6M -14.7%
+
+The item being measured (and its units) is up to the test; the context
+and the test title should make it clear to the user whether bigger or
+smaller numbers are better. Unlike test_perf, the test code will only be
+run once, since output sizes tend to be more deterministic than timings.

-This test registers the following filesystem structure in the cache:
-
-    path0/file0	- a file in a directory
-    path1/file1 - a file in a directory
-
-and attempts to check it out when the work tree has:
-
-    path0/file0 - a file in a directory
-    path1       - a symlink pointing at "path0"
-
-Checkout cache should fail to extract path1/file1 because the leading
-path path1 is occupied by a non-directory.  With "-f" it should remove
-the symlink path1 and create directory path1 and file path1/file1.

+# There are a few bugs in the rebase with regards to the subtree strategy, and
+# this test script tries to document them.  First, the following commit history
+# is generated (the onelines are shown, time flows from left to right):
+#
+# master1 - master2 - master3
+#                             \
+# README ---------------------- Add subproject master - master4 - files_subtree/master5
+#
+# Where the merge moves the files master[123].t into the subdirectory
+# files_subtree/ and master4 as well as files_subtree/master5 add files to that
+# directory directly.
+#
+# Then, in subsequent test cases, `git filter-branch` is used to distill just
+# the commits that touch files_subtree/. To give it a final pre-rebase touch,
+# an empty commit is added on top. The pre-rebase commit history looks like
+# this:
+#
+# Add subproject master - master4 - files_subtree/master5 - Empty commit
+#
+# where the root commit adds three files: master1.t, master2.t and master3.t.
+#
+# This commit history is then rebased onto `master3` with the
+# `-Xsubtree=files_subtree` option in three different ways:
+#
+# 1. using `--preserve-merges`
+# 2. using `--preserve-merges` and --keep-empty
+# 3. without specifying a rebase backend

+In order to test git-pack-redundant, we will create a number of objects and

+#      SORRY FOR THE SUPER LONG DESCRIPTION, BUT THIS NEXT ONE IS HAIRY
 #
 # criss-cross + d/f conflict via add/add:
 #   Commit A: Neither file 'a' nor directory 'a/' exists.
 #   Commit B: Introduce 'a'
 #   Commit C: Introduce 'a/file'
-#   Commit D: Merge B & C, keeping 'a' and deleting 'a/'
-#
-# Two different later cases:
+#   Commit D1: Merge B & C, keeping 'a'    and deleting 'a/'
 #   Commit E1: Merge B & C, deleting 'a' but keeping 'a/file'
-#   Commit E2: Merge B & C, deleting 'a' but keeping a slightly modified 'a/file'
 #
-#      B   D
+#      B   D1 or D2
 #      o---o
 #     / \ / \
 #  A o   X   ? F
 #     \ / \ /
 #      o---o
-#      C   E1 or E2
+#      C   E1 or E2 or E3
+#
+# I'll describe D2, E2, & E3 (which are alternatives for D1 & E1) more below...
+#
+# Merging D1 & E1 requires we first create a virtual merge base X from
+# merging A & B in memory.  There are several possibilities for the merge-base:
+#   1: Keep both 'a' and 'a/file' (assuming crazy filesystem allowing a tree
+#      with a directory and file at same path): results in merge of D1 & E1
+#      being clean with both files deleted.  Bad (no conflict detected).
+#   2: Keep 'a' but not 'a/file': Merging D1 & E1 is clean and matches E1.  Bad.
+#   3: Keep 'a/file' but not 'a': Merging D1 & E1 is clean and matches D1.  Bad.
+#   4: Keep neither file: Merging D1 & E1 reports the D/F add/add conflict.
+#
+# So 4 sounds good for this case, but if we were to merge D1 & E3, where E3
+# is defined as:
+#   Commit E3: Merge B & C, keeping modified a, and deleting a/
+# then we'd get an add/add conflict for 'a', which seems suboptimal.  A little
+# creativity leads us to an alternate choice:
+#   5: Keep 'a' as 'a~$UNIQUE' and a/file; results:
+#        Merge D1 & E1: rename/delete conflict for 'a'; a/file silently deleted
+#        Merge D1 & E3 is clean, as expected.
+#
+# So choice 5 at least provides some kind of conflict for the original case,
+# and can merge cleanly as expected with D1 and E3.  It also made things just
+# slightly funny for merging D1 and e$, where E4 is defined as:
+#   Commit E4: Merge B & C, modifying 'a' and renaming to 'a2', and deleting 'a/'
+# in this case, we'll get a rename/rename(1to2) conflict because a~$UNIQUE
+# gets renamed to 'a' in D1 and to 'a2' in E4.  But that's better than having
+# two files (both 'a' and 'a2') sitting around without the user being notified
+# that we could detect they were related and need to be merged.  Also, choice
+# 5 makes the handling of 'a/file' seem suboptimal.  What if we were to merge
+# D2 and E4, where D2 is:
+#   Commit D2: Merge B & C, renaming 'a'->'a2', keeping 'a/file'
+# This would result in a clean merge with 'a2' having three-way merged
+# contents (good), and deleting 'a/' (bad) -- it doesn't detect the
+# conflict in how the different sides treated a/file differently.
+# Continuing down the creative route:
+#   6: Keep 'a' as 'a~$UNIQUE1' and keep 'a/' as 'a~$UNIQUE2/'; results:
+#        Merge D1 & E1: rename/delete conflict for 'a' and each path under 'a/'.
+#        Merge D1 & E3: clean, as expected.
+#        Merge D1 & E4: rename/rename(1to2) conflict on 'a' vs 'a2'.
+#        Merge D2 & E4: clean for 'a2', rename/delete for a/file
 #
-# Merging D & E1 requires we first create a virtual merge base X from
-# merging A & B in memory.  Now, if X could keep both 'a' and 'a/file' in
-# the index, then the merge of D & E1 could be resolved cleanly with both
-# 'a' and 'a/file' removed.  Since git does not currently allow creating
-# such a tree, the best we can do is have X contain both 'a~<unique>' and
-# 'a/file' resulting in the merge of D and E1 having a rename/delete
-# conflict for 'a'.  (Although this merge appears to be unsolvable with git
-# currently, git could do a lot better than it currently does with these
-# d/f conflicts, which is the purpose of this test.)
+# Choice 6 could cause rename detection to take longer (providing more targets
+# that need to be searched).  Also, the conflict message for each path under
+# 'a/' might be annoying unless we can detect it at the directory level, print
+# it once, and then suppress it for individual filepaths underneath.
 #
-# Merge of D & E2 has similar issues for path 'a', but should always result
-# in a modify/delete conflict for path 'a/file'.
 #
-# We run each merge in both directions, to check for directional issues
-# with D/F conflict handling.
+# As of time of writing, git uses choice 5.  Directory rename detection and
+# rename detection performance improvements might make choice 6 a desirable
+# improvement.  But we can at least document where we fall short for now...
+#
+#
+# Historically, this testcase also used:
+#   Commit E2: Merge B & C, deleting 'a' but keeping slightly modified 'a/file'
+# The merge of D1 & E2 is very similar to D1 & E1 -- it has similar issues for
+# path 'a', but should always result in a modify/delete conflict for path
+# 'a/file'.  These tests ran the two merges
+#   D1 & E1
+#   D1 & E2
+# in both directions, to check for directional issues with D/F conflict
+# handling. Later we added
+#   D1 & E3
+#   D1 & E4
+#   D2 & E4
+# for good measure, though we only ran those one way because we had pretty
+# good confidence in merge-recursive's directional handling of D/F issues.
+#
+# Just to summarize all the intermediate merge commits:
+#   Commit D1: Merge B & C, keeping a    and deleting a/
+#   Commit D2: Merge B & C, renaming a->a2, keeping a/file
+#   Commit E1: Merge B & C, deleting a but keeping a/file
+#   Commit E2: Merge B & C, deleting a but keeping slightly modified a/file
+#   Commit E3: Merge B & C, keeping modified a, and deleting a/
+#   Commit E4: Merge B & C, modifying 'a' and renaming to 'a2', and deleting 'a/'

+# SECTION 4: Partially renamed directory; still exists on both sides of merge
+#
+# What if we were to attempt to do directory rename detection when someone
+# "mostly" moved a directory but still left some files around, or,
+# equivalently, fully renamed a directory in one commit and then recreated
+# that directory in a later commit adding some new files and then tried to
+# merge?
+#
+# It's hard to divine user intent in these cases, because you can make an
+# argument that, depending on the intermediate history of the side being
+# merged, that some users will want files in that directory to
+# automatically be detected and renamed, while users with a different
+# intermediate history wouldn't want that rename to happen.
+#
+# I think that it is best to simply not have directory rename detection
+# apply to such cases.  My reasoning for this is four-fold: (1) it's
+# easiest for users in general to figure out what happened if we don't
+# apply directory rename detection in any such case, (2) it's an easy rule
+# to explain ["We don't do directory rename detection if the directory
+# still exists on both sides of the merge"], (3) we can get some hairy
+# edge/corner cases that would be really confusing and possibly not even
+# representable in the index if we were to even try, and [related to 3] (4)
+# attempting to resolve this issue of divining user intent by examining
+# intermediate history goes against the spirit of three-way merges and is a
+# path towards crazy corner cases that are far more complex than what we're
+# already dealing with.
+#
+# Note that the wording of the rule ("We don't do directory rename
+# detection if the directory still exists on both sides of the merge.")
+# also excludes "renaming" of a directory into a subdirectory of itself
+# (e.g. /some/dir/* -> /some/dir/subdir/*).  It may be possible to carve
+# out an exception for "renaming"-beneath-itself cases without opening
+# weird edge/corner cases for other partial directory renames, but for now
+# we are keeping the rule simple.

+# SECTION 7: More involved Edge/Corner cases
+#
+# The ruleset we have generated in the above sections seems to provide
+# well-defined merges.  But can we find edge/corner cases that either (a)
+# are harder for users to understand, or (b) have a resolution that is
+# non-intuitive or suboptimal?
+#
+# The testcases in this section dive into cases that I've tried to craft in
+# a way to find some that might be surprising to users or difficult for
+# them to understand (the next section will look at non-intuitive or
+# suboptimal merge results).  Some of the testcases are similar to ones
+# from past sections, but have been simplified to try to highlight error
+# messages using a "modified" path (due to the directory rename).  Are
+# users okay with these?
+#
+# In my opinion, testcases that are difficult to understand from this
+# section is due to difficulty in the testcase rather than the directory
+# renaming (similar to how t6042 and t6036 have difficult resolutions due
+# to the problem setup itself being complex).  And I don't think the
+# error messages are a problem.

+#
+# To be fair, we already had non-intuitive or suboptimal behavior for most

+# unpack_trees(), upon which the recursive merge algorithm is based, aborts
+# the operation if untracked or dirty files would be deleted or overwritten
+# by the merge.  Unfortunately, unpack_trees() does not understand renames,
+# and if it doesn't abort, then it muddies up the working directory before
+# we even get to the point of detecting renames, so we need some special
+# handling.  This was true even of normal renames, but there are additional

+# Testcase 13e, directory rename in virtual merge base

+# This testcase has a slightly different setup than all the above cases, in
+# order to include a recursive case:
+#
+#      A   C
+#      o - o
+#     / \ / \
+#  O o   X   ?
+#     \ / \ /
+#      o   o
+#      B   D
+#
+#   Commit O: a/{z,y}
+#   Commit A: b/{z,y}
+#   Commit B: a/{z,y,x}
+#   Commit C: b/{z,y,x}
+#   Commit D: b/{z,y}, a/x
+#   Expected: b/{z,y,x}  (sort of; see below for why this might not be expected)
+#
+#   NOTES: 'X' represents a virtual merge base.  With the default of
+#          directory rename detection yielding conflicts, merging A and B
+#          results in a conflict complaining about whether 'x' should be
+#          under 'a/' or 'b/'.  However, when creating the virtual merge
+#          base 'X', since virtual merge bases need to be written out as a
+#          tree, we cannot have a conflict, so some resolution has to be
+#          picked.
+#
+#          In choosing the right resolution, it's worth noting here that
+#          commits C & D are merges of A & B that choose different
+#          locations for 'x' (i.e. they resolve the conflict differently),
+#          and so it would be nice when merging C & D if git could detect
+#          this difference of opinion and report a conflict.  But the only
+#          way to do so that I can think of would be to have the virtual
+#          merge base place 'x' in some directory other than either 'a/' or
+#          'b/', which seems a little weird -- especially since it'd result
+#          in a rename/rename(1to2) conflict with a source path that never
+#          existed in any version.
+#
+#          So, for now, when directory rename detection is set to
