Description: Summary This PR introduces xfail_if_raises, a context manager that approximates @pytest.mark.xfail(..., raises=...) behavior inside a test body rather than as a decorator. Problem @pytest.mark.xfail evaluates its condition argument during test collection (module import time). In test_index_mutation, this condition includes Git().config("core.symlinks") == "true", which: Spawns an external git config process even when the test is not being run Can fail or behave unexpectedly during collection if git configuration is unavailable Relies on in-repo code during test discovery, which may not be appropriate in all contexts Solution xfail_if_raises moves the xfail logic into the test body. The side-effectful condition is only evaluated if the test actually raises the specified exception(s). This keeps test collection lightweight and avoids relying on in-repo code as part of module import/test discovery. This change is applied to test_index_mutation in test/test_index.py. AI disclosure This PR description was prepared with assistance from an agent. All code was written by hand.
