Subject: t: introduce GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_REF_FORMAT envvar
X-Git-Tag: v2.44.0-rc0~78^2~4
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=58aaf59133b4167aefaab6083e80deb369894f79;p=thirdparty%2Fgit.git

t: introduce GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_REF_FORMAT envvar

Introduce a new GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_REF_FORMAT environment variable that
lets developers run the test suite with a different default ref format
without impacting the ref format used by non-test Git invocations. This
is modeled after GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_OBJECT_FORMAT, which does the same
thing for the repository's object format.

Adapt the setup of the `REFFILES` test prerequisite to be conditionally
set based on the default ref format.
