[PATCH] tests: fix race in tail test without inotify


From: Pádraig Brady
Subject: [PATCH] tests: fix race in tail test without inotify
Date: Mon, 1 Jun 2015 17:03:50 +0100

* tests/tail-2/wait.sh: Without inotify, skip a portion of the test
that checks that -F never outputs from a tailed descriptor
after the followed name is recreated, because tail_forever()
doesn't guarantee that.
Noticed at http://hydra.nixos.org/build/22766288
