Subject: [BUG] t7063-status-untracked-cache flaky?
Message-ID: <326E1A8B-3612-4771-80B8-77346C0D762D@gmail.com>

Hi,

I noticed that "t7063-status-untracked-cache.sh" occasionally fails with "not ok 24 - test sparse status with untracked cache".

E.g. on OS X compiled with gcc:
https://travis-ci.org/larsxschneider/git/jobs/85432514

E.g. on Linux compiled with gcc:
https://travis-ci.org/larsxschneider/git/jobs/84986975

The test was added with commit 7687252. I have not really investigated the problem yet but the "avoid_racy" method caught my attention. Is this test known to be flaky? Would an increased sleep time in "avoid_racy" help?

Thanks,
Lars
