From: Nikolaus Schuetz <[email protected]> `git merge-base --is-ancestor A B` is used a lot in scripts but has no tests. Add some to t6010 covering its exit codes: 0 when A is an ancestor of B, 1 when it is not, and 128 (not 1) when given a bad argument. Also check that --is-ancestor and --all can't be combined, and that the resulting error names both options. Signed-off-by: Nikolaus Schuetz <[email protected]> --- merge-base: add tests for --is-ancestor Changes since v1, per review: * Reuse the E---D---C---B---A history and the G/H merges from the "set up G and H" test instead of creating a separate repository. * Add a test that --is-ancestor requires exactly two commits: too few is a usage error (exit 129), while more than two is rejected with "--is-ancestor takes exactly two commits" (exit 128).
