I'm wondering, why I'm listed twice there (as Bernhard Seckinger and as berni44). IMHO berni44 should not have been listed there... Do I have to change something in my git settings to get this right?

Probably differen email addresses. You can set an email address locally for the repository in .git/config. Or just add an alias: https://github.com/dlang/tools/blob/master/.mailmap

The unittest default mode might cause some issues for unittest frameworks like d-unit. They need a main but due to a dub bug, passing DRT affects the Dub executable but not the spawned application. Open bug issue https://github.com/dlang/dub/issues/1280

Kind regards

git config -l reveals only one address (which is set at global level; there is no local and no systemwide email address). It's the same I use in github. In bugzilla I use a different one, but I guess, that this is not relevant.

I haven't tested, but the frameworks should be fine. They override the behavior (i.e. register a different handler for unittests)

The switch only affects vanilla D unittest handler behavior.

In other words, if you use e.g. unitthreaded or dub's test build, the switch is of no consequence.

You can submit a PR to add a mapping to tools/.mailmap:

I've gotten very used to running my app via

    dub run --compiler=dmd --build=unittest

in order to, with short iterations, run tests and the application at the same time.

Changing this behaviour via

https://dlang.org/changelog/2.090.0.html#unittest-default

is, to me, an usually disruptive change.

I tried changing to

    dub run --compiler=dmd --build=unittest -- --DRT-testmode=run-main

but it still doesn't run the application after the unittests are run.

Have I missed something or is this a known problem with dub? If so, do I have any alternative to brute-forcing the problem with

    dub run --compiler=dmd --build=unittest
    dub run --compiler=dmd --build=debug

which, for me, doubles my development iteration time.
