[Emacs-diffs] master 67ed6ee: Correctly explain test failures with mixed uni/multibyte strings

[Mattias Engdegård]

branch: master
commit 67ed6ee7337d66dc1101e41bc2e67bde5ab0ecd4
Author: Mattias Engdegård <address@hidden>
Commit: Mattias Engdegård <address@hidden>

    Correctly explain test failures with mixed uni/multibyte strings
    
    * lisp/emacs-lisp/ert.el (ert--explain-equal-rec):
    * test/lisp/emacs-lisp/ert-tests.el (ert-test-explain-equal):
    When explaining a difference between a unibyte and a multibyte string,
    first convert both to multibyte.  Otherwise, we might end up comparing
    unibyte char C to multibyte char C, 127<C<256, and not detect the
    difference (bug#30219).
