I had not remembered that the 'tc' subcommand in tsh adds *text* that
contains the current time, so commit SHAs were changing.
Thanks to milki for catching this, and in fact being the only person who
ever appears to have attempted to run the test suite at all!
gitolite setup fails to check admin pubkey, because $text always
contains 2 or more lines after tsh_try() (the key and -n).
[committer adds:
I wasn't sure if 'printf' would work on cygwin, so I chose what
looked like a safer option, but apparently it wasn't safe enough and
fell afoul of Solaris.
Anyway I managed to check (using a small test program) with someone
who runs gitolite on cygwin, and it works.
If you're wondering why I didn't just use echo followed by chomp(),
that would of course have been the easy way out but I wanted to see
how you'd do it without a post-processing option. It became a
frustrating challenge of sorts because it seems such a trivial thing!

The fix is easy enough, but I hate having to code work-arounds for
proprietary OSs when the same code works fine on Linux and BSD.
/me wisely avoids words like posix in his rant ;-)
Thanks to Franck Zoccolo for help in finding what the problem was and
when and why it occurred.

Someday there will be some issue that requires a fix with significant
code change (or worse, a change that is incompatible with Linux), and I
will probably refuse. Of course, I will be properly regretful about my
inability to fix it.[1]
(manually tested, no test script)
the whimsically named "D" command deletes repos, and is the opposite of
the "C" permission that enables the user to create one in the first
place. See the usage message for user info, and look in the comments of
the code itself for admin info.
- minor typo fixes, clarifications, etc.
- keep sts.html url consistent, because many people link to
http://sitaramc.github.com/gitolite/sts.html
- create a common migration doc, so the old 'migr.html' does not 404
when g3 docs become "main"
- progit doc done
- add gitosis convert script (FWIW)
- a minor comment fix to Sugar.pm
