I have two test failures to report in git 2.9.2 on macOS:


t3210-pack-refs.sh has not changed between 2.8.4 and 2.9.2.  This test passed fine with 2.8.4, but it now fails with 2.9.2 at:

not ok 26 - retry acquiring packed-refs.lock
#	
#		LOCK=.git/packed-refs.lock &&
#		>"$LOCK" &&
#		test_when_finished "wait; rm -f $LOCK" &&
#		{
#			( sleep 1 ; rm -f $LOCK ) &
#		} &&
#		git -c core.packedrefstimeout=3000 pack-refs --all --prune
#

t3700-add.sh recently added the 'git add --chmod=-x stages an executable file with -x' test.  This test passes when run as a normal user but fails when run as root:

$ ./t3700-add.sh
...
# passed all 40 test(s)
1..40

$ sudo ./t3700-add.sh
...
not ok 39 - git add --chmod=-x stages an executable file with -x
#	
#		echo foo >xfoo1 &&
#		chmod 755 xfoo1 &&
#		git add --chmod=-x xfoo1 &&
#		case "$(git ls-files --stage xfoo1)" in
#		100644" "*xfoo1) echo pass;;
#		*) echo fail; git ls-files --stage xfoo1; (exit 1);;
#		esac
#	
# failed 1 among 40 test(s)
1..40
