RE: [PATCH] t/t7704-repack-cruft.sh: avoid failures during long-running tests

>On systems where running t7704.09 takes longer than 10 seconds, the test can fail.
>
>The test works by doing the following:
>
>  - First write three unreachable objects, backdating the mtime for a
>    single object ($foo) which we expect to prune.
>
>  - Repack the repository into a pack containing reachable objects, and
>    another three cruft packs, each containing one of the objects
>    written in the previous step.
>
>  - Backdate the mtimes of the cruft pack *.mtimes files themselves.
>    (Note that this does not affect what is pruned further down in the
>    test, but is done to ensure that the cruft packs are rewritten
>    during that step).
>
>  - Then repack with --cruft-expiration=10.seconds.ago, expecting to
>    prune one of the three unreachable objects written in the first
>    step.
>
>  - Assert that the surviving cruft packs were rewritten, object $foo is
>    pruned, and unreachable objects $bar, and $baz remain in the
>    repository.

>If longer than 10 seconds pass between writing the three unreachable objects (the

>Instead, set the cutoff to be 1,000 seconds to give the test much longer time to run
