From f8819ed634c7dac594755c37f3dc3bbf9d7926fe Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michael Orlitzky Date: Fri, 2 Mar 2018 14:59:10 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] Update docs and tests for the --recursive exit code. With the nftw() implementation, there was some bugginess in our exit code that was both documented and tested. Well now I plan on fixing that, so the documentation has been updated to state what the exit code _should_ be, and the tests now check for the correct behavior (meaning that they fail, for the moment). --- doc/man/apply-default-acl.1 | 8 ++------ run-tests.sh | 10 ++++------ 2 files changed, 6 insertions(+), 12 deletions(-) diff --git a/doc/man/apply-default-acl.1 b/doc/man/apply-default-acl.1 index b13d5fd..87e9803 100644 --- a/doc/man/apply-default-acl.1 +++ b/doc/man/apply-default-acl.1 @@ -52,9 +52,5 @@ one path succeeds and another fails, the overall result will be failure.
