Here is a suggested reroll. I reworded to avoid a subjective "truly platform-independent", which is not what we intend to aim for anyway (we only try to support the platforms we care about). -- >8 -- From: Johannes Schindelin Date: Mon, 15 Aug 2016 16:08:41 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] t/Makefile: make sure that paths can be checked out on platforms we care Some pathnames that are okay on ext4 and on HFS+ cannot be checked out on Windows. Tests that want to see operations on such paths on filesystems that support them must do so behind appropriate test prerequisites, and must not include them in the source tree (instead they should create them when they run). Otherwise, the source tree cannot be even checked out. Make sure that double-quotes, asterisk, colon, greater/less-than, question-mark, backslash, tab and vertical-bar never appears in the pathnames with a new test-lint-* target as part of a `make test`. Noticed when a topic wanted to add a pathname with '>' in it. A check like this will prevent a similar problems from happening.
