Hi,
init.sh is used in the GNU gettext test suite, and I frequently have the need
to inspect temporary files after a test failure (or even after an unexpected
test pass). Therefore here's a proposed patch that introduces an option to do
this.
2016-12-15 Bruno Haible <br...@clisp.org>
init.sh: Add possibility to not delete temporary files.
* tests/init.sh (remove_tmp_): If the environment variable KEEP is set
to yes,
don't erase the temporary directory.
