Armin KunaschikHello,
I have 2 failed tests here: large transaction creating branches does not burst open file limit large transaction deleting branches does not burst open file limit
both tests fail because of the decreased file limit: git-2.8.3/t/../bin-wrappers/git: bad file unit number
The tests run fine on AIX with ksh88 when I increase the ulimit to 63 or higher. bash and ksh93 test fine with the present ulimit of 32.
Changing the shell interpreter of the git-wrapper script to /bin/bash or /bin/ksh93 is enough to make these 2 tests work with the lower ulimit. All other scripts can be run with any shell.
I have no idea why the ksh88 consumes so much file descriptors, I also don't have an idea if or how this test can be "fixed".
So I'll leave this here for information purposes :-)
Armin
