[PATCH] tests: check if 'compress' is real of fake


From: Peter Rosin
Subject: [PATCH] tests: check if 'compress' is real of fake
Date: Wed, 8 Feb 2012 22:24:32 +0100

On Cygwin, 'compress' is provided by sharutils and is just a
dummy script that is not able to actually compress (it can
only decompress).  This fake 'compress' is not usable for
our purpose - to create compressed tarballs.

* tests/dist-formats.tap (missing_compressors): Count 'compress'
as missing if it does not support the -c option.
