From: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@xxxxxx> It seems that every once in a while in the Git for Windows SDK, there are some transient file locking issues preventing the test clean up to delete the trash directory. Let's be gentle and try again five seconds later, and only error out if it still fails the second time. This change helps Windows, and does not hurt any other platform (normally, it is highly unlikely that said deletion fails, and if it does, normally it will fail again even 5 seconds later).
