Could you please provide more details? This is on the latest OS version of NonStop x86. The test is done via the following: With OpenSSL 3.4 The T0625 is Expat. When run as follows: GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_REF_FORMAT=reftable GIT_TEST_CLONE_2GB=true /usr/coreutils/bin/make -k test V=1 CFLAGS="-g -O2 -Winline -I/usr/local-ssl3.4/include -I/usr/coreutils/include -I/usr/tandem/xml/T0625L01_AAE/include" LDFLAGS="/usr/coreutils/lib/libz.a -L/usr/local-ssl3.4/lib -L/usr/coreutils/lib -L/usr/tandem/xml/T0625L01_AAE/lib" TEST_LINT= SHELL=/usr/coreutils/bin/bash The results are: *** t0000-basic.sh *** error: cannot run git init Makefile:77: recipe for target 't0000-basic.sh' failed make[2]: *** [t0000-basic.sh] Error 1 *** t0001-init.sh *** error: cannot run git init Makefile:77: recipe for target 't0001-init.sh' failed make[2]: *** [t0001-init.sh] Error 1 *** t0002-gitfile.sh *** error: cannot run git init Makefile:77: recipe for target 't0002-gitfile.sh' failed make[2]: *** [t0002-gitfile.sh] Error 1 etc for all tests. Removing GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_REF_FORMAT=reftable allows the whole test suite to pass. There are environment size limits (about 32Kb) in bash on the box, so it is possible a boundary was crossed internal to the test setup.
