Subject: [PATCH 1/3] t6429: update comment to mention correct tool
Date: Mon, 03 Nov 2025 18:01:46 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <950236f0f812197e260159a688fc6f6fa61046c7.1762192908.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <pull.1992.git.1762192908.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>

From: Elijah Newren <newren@gmail•com>

A comment at the top of t6429 mentions why the test doesn't exercise git
rebase or git cherry-pick.  However, it claims that it uses `test-tool
fast-rebase`.  That was true when the comment was written, but commit
f920b0289ba3 (replay: introduce new builtin, 2023-11-24) changed it to
use git replay without updating this comment.

We could potentially just strike this second comment, since git replay
is a bonified built-in, but perhaps the explanation about why it focuses
on git replay is still useful.  Update the comment to make it accurate
again.
