Message-ID: <f7d7892a48a90b54f466569ac220cb2c9e319806.1541016115.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <pull.63.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>

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

It is in general a good idea for regression test cases to be as
independent of each other as possible (with the one exception of an
initial `setup` test case, which is only a test case in Git's test suite
because it does not have a notion of a fixture or setup).

This patch addresses one particular instance of this principle being
violated: a few test cases in t3418-rebase-continue.sh depend on a side
effect of a test case that verifies a specific `rebase -p` behavior. The
later test cases should, however, still succeed even if the `rebase -p`
test case is skipped.
