`scripts/run_tests.sh tests/<dir>/` is how a change gets its regression
coverage run, so a test filed under the wrong directory is a test nobody
runs when that code changes. Two kinds of drift had accumulated.
Parallel directories for one source package, folded into the mirror:
tests/acp -> tests/acp_adapter (its __init__/conftest move with it)
tests/cli -> tests/hermes_cli (prompt_toolkit fixture merged into
hermes_cli/conftest.py)
tests/run_agent -> tests/agent (backoff fixture becomes
agent/conftest.py)
tests/relay -> tests/gateway/relay
tests/state -> tests/hermes_state
246 loose files at tests/ root, routed by the package they import/patch:
hermes_cli, hermes_state, agent, gateway, tools, plugins, tui_gateway, cron.
Installer and desktop-update script tests go to tests/scripts/{install,
desktop_update}/. 43 tests of root-level modules (batch_runner, utils,
hermes_constants, packaging) stay at the root.
Filenames drop their issue numbers (95 files: test_89315_x.py -> test_x.py);
the number stays in the module docstring where it has context.
Collisions: test_cli_skin_integration.py existed in both tests/ and tests/cli
with different subsets — merged into one (10 tests, all kept);
run_agent/test_pre_compress_memory_context.py -> agent/..._handoff.py;
tests/test_account_usage.py -> agent/test_account_usage_fetch.py;
tests/test_web_server.py -> hermes_cli/test_web_server_ws_ping.py.
Deleted: test_minisweagent_path.py (empty since PR #2804),
test_model_picker_scroll.py (tested a private copy of the logic, imported
nothing), test_process_loop_event_loop_warning.py (asserted asyncio behaviour,
imported nothing from Hermes).
Repo-root path arithmetic (Path(__file__).parents[N], dirname chains) is
bumped for the 202 files that changed depth and verified by evaluating every
such expression against the new location. classify_changes' desktop-updater
lane prefix, tests-os.yml's ignore glob and every in-tree path comment follow
the moves. tests/test_tests_tree_layout.py keeps the tree from drifting back.
The stale-lock removal tests asserted the sweep result while leaving
_git_proc_running() live: on CI the parallel per-file runner almost
always has a real git subprocess in flight, pgrep -x git hits, and
clear_stale_git_locks correctly refuses to sweep — failing the tests
for reasons unrelated to the code under test (surfaced on PR #86918,
which doesn't touch gitlock at all).
Monkeypatch the guard to False in the sweep tests and add an explicit
test pinning the guard's block-while-git-running behavior.
Two related failure modes after a crashed/interrupted fetch on a shallow
clone (git clone --depth 1 installs):
1. STALE LOCK WEDGES EVERY FETCH. A killed fetch can leave .git/shallow.lock
behind; every later 'git fetch' then fails with 'Unable to create
.../shallow.lock: File exists'. 'hermes update --check' reported a hard
fetch failure, and the passive banner check swallowed the exception and
compared stale refs. Add hermes_cli.gitlock.clear_stale_git_locks(), a
guarded sweep (age + git-process check so a live fetch is never yanked)
wired into the check path, the apply path, and the banner's passive check.
2. SHALLOW TIP-SHA COMPARE FALSE-POSITIVES. On a shallow clone the check
cannot count commits, so it compares tip SHAs. Local cherry-picks on top
of the remote tip (e.g. re-applied local patches) make HEAD differ from
origin/main even though HEAD already contains it — a false 'update
available' banner. Add hermes_cli.gitlock.is_ancestor_of_head() and use
'git merge-base --is-ancestor' in the CLI check and banner paths before
reporting an update. Mirror in the desktop (update-count.ts gains an
isAncestor input; main.ts probes merge-base --is-ancestor).
Tests: tests/test_gitlock.py (9) covering stale/young/no-lock/no-repo sweeps
and ancestry true/false; update-count.test.ts +3 for the isAncestor path.
