[PATCH 1/2] t1415: avoid using `main` as ref name

[Johannes Schindelin via GitGitGadget]

From: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>

In preparation for a patch series that will change the fall-back for
`init.defaultBranch` to `main`, let's not use `main` as ref name in this
test script.

Since we already use the name "second" for a secondary worktree that is
created in this test, let's use the name "first" for those refs instead.

While at it, adjust the test titles where "repo" was used by mistake
instead of the term "worktree".

Interesting.  I assume the issue is this line?

	-	git -C fer1/repo for-each-ref --format="%(refname)" | grep main >actual &&

I.e., it's not actually that naming a worktree "main" will break
anything, but just that the test catches refs/heads/main in the same
net when it does grepping?

If the commit message explains that, then this patch looks good to me.
Without such an explanation, it would make me fear that we have some
underlying bug in "git worktree".

Thanks,
Jonathan

Right.

Indeed. This is my current revision of the commit message:

    t1415: avoid using `main` as ref name

    In preparation for a patch series that will change the fall-back for
    `init.defaultBranch` to `main`, let's not use `main` as ref name in this
    test script.

    Otherwise, the `git for-each-ref ... | grep main` which wants to catch
    those refs would also unexpectedly catch `refs/heads/main`.

    Since the refs in question are worktree-local ones (i.e. each worktree
    has their own, just like `HEAD`), and since the test case already uses a
    secondary worktree called "second", let's use the name "first" for those
    refs instead.

    While at it, adjust the test titles that talk about a "repo" when they
    meant a "worktree" instead.

Ciao,

[PATCH 2/2] tests: avoid using the branch name `main`

[Johannes Schindelin via GitGitGadget]

From: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>

In the near future, we want to change Git's default branch name to
`main`. In preparation for that, stop using it as a branch name in the
test suite. Replace that branch name by `primary`.

Is there a secondary corresponding to this primary?

I guess the idea is that this is the trunk that other branches branch
from?  Looking at the history, it seems that this test was added
relatively recently and it may have had the upcoming branch name change
in mind (or in other words if it were an older test it might be expected
to use "master").

That suggests an alternative that is agnostic to init.defaultBranch:
what if this uses "git switch -C main"?

Thanks,
Jonathan

Nope, of course not ;-)

I guess that Stolee (Cc:ed) had something like that in mind.

When I look at 8d049e182e2 (revision: --show-pulls adds helpful
merges, 2020-04-10), I get the impression that does not _really_ care
about the name of the main branch, it just wants to know the name so it
can switch back and forth.

If I had had the presence of mind when reviewing that patch back in April,
I would probably have advocated for the use of `git switch -`...

In any case, I would like to keep this consistent with the remainder of
the test scripts modified by this patch, and use the relatively neutral
`topic` here.

The branch name here is not important, so please replace it
with whatever works best for you.

What _is_ important is keeping the commit messages in agreement with
the commented ASCII-art DAG above this test. It does not mention the
branch names, so this change will not cause an inconsistent comment.

[PATCH v2 0/2] Avoid main as branch name in the test suite

[Johannes Schindelin via GitGitGadget]

In preparation for changing the default branch name to main, let's stop
using it as non-default branch name in the test suite.

This is the last preparatory step before the patch series that intends to
change the default branch name to main. See 
https://github.com/gitgitgadget/git/pull/655 for the entire game plan.

Changes since v1:

 * The commit message of the t1415 patch elaborates a but more about the
   rationale for the change.
 * Instead of primary, the second patch renames all of those branches to 
   topic, imitating b6211b89eb3 (tests: avoid variations of the master 
   branch name, 2020-09-26).

[PATCH v2 1/2] t1415: avoid using `main` as ref name

[Johannes Schindelin via GitGitGadget]

From: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>

In preparation for a patch series that will change the fall-back for
`init.defaultBranch` to `main`, let's not use `main` as ref name in this
test script.

Otherwise, the `git for-each-ref ... | grep main` which wants to catch
those refs would also unexpectedly catch `refs/heads/main`.

Since the refs in question are worktree-local ones (i.e. each worktree
has their own, just like `HEAD`), and since the test case already uses a
secondary worktree called "second", let's use the name "first" for those
refs instead.

While at it, adjust the test titles that talk about a "repo" when they
meant a "worktree" instead.

[PATCH v2 2/2] tests: avoid using the branch name `main`

[Johannes Schindelin via GitGitGadget]

From: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>

In the near future, we want to change Git's default branch name to
`main`. In preparation for that, stop using it as a branch name in the
test suite. Replace that branch name by `topic`, the same name we used
to rename variations of `master` in b6211b89eb3 (tests: avoid variations
of the `master` branch name, 2020-09-26).
