[PATCH 0/1] Fix a test on NTFS (and probably HFS+)

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



My colleague Jameson Miller once presented me with a nice puzzle why the
test suite failed on their system.

Turns out that it is possible in PowerShell to spell the directory with a
different case than on disk in cd <directory>, and subsequent calls to get
the current working directory will use that case, rather than what is
recorded on disk. And since case-insensitive filesystems are frowned upon in
the Linux world, Git's test suite was not prepared for such a scenario.
