As originally implemented, chainlint did not collect structured information about detected problems. Instead, it merely emitted raw parse tokens (not the original test text), along with a "?!...?!" annotation directly into the output stream each time a problem was discovered. In order to report statistics (in --stats mode) and to adjust its exit code to indicate success or failure, it merely counts the number of times "?!...?!" appears in the output stream. An obvious shortcoming of this approach is that it can be fooled by a legitimate "?!...?!" sequence in the body of a test (though, only if an actual problem is detected in the test). The situation did not improve when 7c04aa7390 (chainlint: colorize problem annotations and test delimiters, 2022-09-13) colored the annotations after-the-fact by searching for "?!...?!" in the output stream and inserting color codes. As above, a shortcoming is that this approach can incorrectly color a legitimate "?!...?!" sequence in a test body as if it is an error. However, when 73c768dae9 (chainlint: annotate original test definition rather than token stream, 2022-11-08) taught chainlint to output the original test text verbatim, it started collecting structured information about detected problems. Now that it is available, take advantage of the structured problem information to deterministically count the number of problems detected and to color the annotations directly, rather than scanning the output stream for "?!...?!" and performing these operations after-the-fact.

Git - fast, scalable, distributed revision control system
Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals.
Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License version 2 (some parts of it are under different licenses, compatible with the GPLv2). It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net.
Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.
Many Git online resources are accessible from https://git-scm.com/ including full documentation and Git related tools.
See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see
Documentation/giteveryday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and
Documentation/git-<commandname>.txt for documentation of each command.
If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be
read with man gittutorial or git help tutorial, and the
documentation of each command with man git-<commandname> or git help <commandname>.
CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt
(man gitcvs-migration or git help cvs-migration if git is
installed).
The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission and Documentation/CodingGuidelines).
Those wishing to help with error message, usage and informational message
string translations (localization l10) should see po/README.md
(a po file is a Portable Object file that holds the translations).
To subscribe to the list, send an email to git+subscribe@vger.kernel.org (see https://subspace.kernel.org/subscribing.html for details). The mailing list archives are available at https://lore.kernel.org/git/, https://marc.info/?l=git and other archival sites.
Issues which are security relevant should be disclosed privately to the Git Security mailing list git-security@googlegroups.com.
The maintainer frequently sends the "What's cooking" reports that list the current status of various development topics to the mailing list. The discussion following them give a good reference for project status, development direction and remaining tasks.
The name "git" was given by Linus Torvalds when he wrote the very first version. He described the tool as "the stupid content tracker" and the name as (depending on your mood):
- random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not actually used by any common UNIX command. The fact that it is a mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant.
- stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the dictionary of slang.
- "global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room.
- "goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks
