Subject: t0014: test shadowing of aliases for a sample of builtins
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=65d33db48e5a2c6dbf3f33d6eaa987f55dabe26a;p=thirdparty%2Fgit.git

t0014: test shadowing of aliases for a sample of builtins

The previous commit added tests for shadowing deprecated builtins.
Let’s make the test suite more complete by exercising a sample of
the builtins and in turn test the documentation for git-config(1):

    To avoid confusion and troubles with script usage, aliases that hide
    existing Git commands are ignored except for deprecated commands.
