Weird dependency execution order

[ineffyble]

I've run into a situation where tasks are executing in an unexpected fashion. I've replicated this situation with the batect.yml below.

Expected behaviour: makeTheSandwich runs before takeABiteOfTheSandwich

Is there something I'm missing in my dependency tree that's causing it to run in this order?

Thanks for the feedback @ineffyble. Just to be clear, which task are you running? (ie. ./batect <some-task-name-here>)

[ineffyble]

Oops, sorry. ./batect sandwichHasBeenEaten

[charleskorn]

Right, so if I understand correctly, the order in prerequisites is not respected?

I would expect the execution order to be:

• getSandwichContents
• putContentsInBread
• prepareTheTable
• makeTheSandwich
• takeABiteOfTheSandwich
• eatTheSandwich
• sandwichHasBeenEaten

If that's not what's happening then this sounds like a bug, not something you're missing in your configuration.

That's right - they're running in the wrong order.

Good to know it is a bug and just not me goofing up.

Alright, I'll take a look into it. Thanks for the detailed report and reproduction!

I've just pushed a fix for this, and will publish a release shortly.

Thanks again for taking the time to report the issue and for providing a reproduction @ineffyble!
