From: Ramsay Jones Date: Sat, 19 Nov 2011 19:37:31 GMT Subject: [PATCH 0/3] test failures on v1.7.8-rc2 Message-ID: <4EC8057B.1060500@ramsay1.demon.co.uk> Hi Junio, The test-suite on cygwin has a number of failures. These patches fix up most of the problems. I know v1.7.8-rc3 is out already, but it takes 2 hours 15 minutes to run the tests on cygwin (and that's without the svn tests!) so I didn't want to rebase and re-test the patches tonight ... ;-) [PATCH 1/3] t5501-*.sh: Fix url passed to clone in setup test [PATCH 2/3] config.c: Fix a static buffer overwrite bug by avoiding mkpath() [PATCH 3/3] git-submodule.sh: Don't use $path variable in eval_gettext string Note that patch #3 is an RFC; see patch for more. [with these patches applied, I have GIT_SKIP_TEST='t0061.3 t0070.3'] ATB, Ramsay Jones
