grep(1) converts CRLF line endings to CR on current MinGW: $ uname -sr MINGW64_NT-10.0-22621 3.3.6-341.x86_64 $ printf 'a\r\n' | hexdump.exe -C 00000000 61 0d 0a |a..| 00000003 $ printf 'a\r\n' | grep . | hexdump.exe -C 00000000 61 0a |a.| 00000002 Create the intended test file by grepping the original file with LF line endings and adding CRs explicitly. The missing CRs went unnoticed because test_cmp on MinGW ignores line endings since 4d715ac05c (Windows: a test_cmp that is agnostic to random LF <> CRLF conversions, 2013-10-26). Fix this test anyway to avoid depending on that special test_cmp behavior, especially since this is the only test that needs it. Piping the output of grep(1) through append_cr has the side-effect of ignoring its return value. That means we no longer need the explicit "|| true" to support commit messages without a body.
