This causes the test to immediately exit upon the first
failed test.
+--long-tests::
+ This causes additional long-running tests to be run (where
+ available), for more exhaustive testing.
+
+
+Skipping Tests
+--------------
+
+In some environments, certain tests have no way of succeeding
+due to platform limitation, such as lack of 'unzip' program, or
+filesystem that do not allow arbitrary sequence of non-NUL bytes
+as pathnames.
+
+You should be able to say something like
+
+ $ GIT_SKIP_TESTS=t9200.8 sh ./t9200-git-cvsexport-commit.sh
+
+and even:
+
+ $ GIT_SKIP_TESTS='t[0-4]??? t91?? t9200.8' make
+
+to omit such tests. The value of the environment variable is a
+SP separated list of patterns that tells which tests to skip,
+and either can match the "t[0-9]{4}" part to skip the whole
+test, or t[0-9]{4} followed by ".$number" to say which
+particular test to skip.
+
+Note that some tests in the existing test suite rely on previous
+test item, so you cannot arbitrarily disable one and expect the
+remainder of test to check what the test originally was intended
+to check.
+
Naming Tests
------------
is to summarize successes and failures in the test script and
exit with an appropriate error code.
+ - test_tick
+
+ Make commit and tag names consistent by setting the author and
+ committer times to defined stated. Subsequent calls will
+ advance the times by a fixed amount.
+
+ - test_commit <message> [<filename> [<contents>]]
+
+ Creates a commit with the given message, committing the given
+ file with the given contents (default for both is to reuse the
+ message string), and adds a tag (again reusing the message
+ string as name). Calls test_tick to make the SHA-1s
+ reproducible.
+
+ - test_merge <message> <commit-or-tag>
+
+ Merges the given rev using the given message. Like test_commit,
+ creates a tag and calls test_tick before committing.
