I saw some funny stuff on Windows, like test cases succeeding when run interactively, but failing when run from "make test". BTW it would have been way easier to apply your patch, had you followed SubmittingPatches... To make it easier on others, I just uploaded it into the "teststat" branch on 4msysgit.git (subject to removal in a few days). First comment: it seems git_fstat() is not declared properly, so there are quite a few compiler warnings. Running the tests now.
