When making sure that background tasks are cleaned up in 5babb5b
(t6026-merge-attr: clean up background process at end of test case,
2016-09-07), we considered to let the background task sleep longer, just
to be certain that it will still be running when we want to kill it
after the test.
Sadly, the assumption appears not to hold true that the test case passes
quickly enough to kill the background task within a second.
Simply increase it to an hour. No system can be possibly slow enough to
make above-mentioned assumption incorrect.

This reverts commit 734fde2d71.
The point of the test is that the stray process was still running
when 'git merge' did its thing through its completion, so a failure
to "kill" it means we didn't give a condition to the test to trigger
a possible future breakage. Appending "|| :" to the "kill" is
sweeping a test-bug under the rug.
Explicitly check for the existence of the pid file to test that the
merge driver was actually called.

Commit 5babb5bdb3 ("t6026-merge-attr: clean up background process at end
of test case") added a kill command to clean up after the test, but this
can fail if the sleep command exits before the cleanup is executed.
Ignore the error from the kill command.

The process spawned in the hook uses the test's trash directory as CWD.
As long as it is alive, the directory cannot be removed on Windows.
Although the test succeeds, the 'test_done' that follows produces an
error message and leaves the trash directory around. Kill the process
before the test case advances.

According to LARGE_PACKET_MAX in pkt-line.h the maximal length of a

therefore the pkt-line data component must not exceed 65516 bytes.

Since 3b75ee9 ("blame: allow to blame paths freshly added to the index",
2016-07-16) git blame also looks at the index to determine if there is a
file that was freshly added to the index.
cache_name_pos returns -pos - 1 in case there is no match is found, or
if the name matches, but the entry has a stage other than 0. As git
blame should work for unmerged files, it uses strcmp to determine
whether the name of the returned position matches, in which case the
file exists, but is merely unmerged, or if the file actually doesn't
exist in the index.
If the repository is empty, or if the file would lexicographically be
sorted as the last file in the repository, -cache_name_pos - 1 is
outside of the length of the active_cache array, causing git blame to
segfault. Guard against that, and die() normally to restore the old
behaviour.

The tempfile (hence its user lockfile) API lets the caller to open
a file descriptor to a temporary file, write into it and then
finalize it by first closing the filehandle and then either
removing or renaming the temporary file. When the process spawns a
subprocess after obtaining the file descriptor, and if the
subprocess has not exited when the attempt to remove or rename is
made, the last step fails on Windows, because the subprocess has
the file descriptor still open. Open tempfile with O_CLOEXEC flag
to avoid this (on Windows, this is mapped to O_NOINHERIT).

The "git -c var[=val] cmd" facility to append a configuration

When the index is locked and child processes inherit the handle to
said lock and the parent process wants to remove the lock before the
child process exits, on Windows there is a problem: it won't work
because files cannot be deleted if a process holds a handle on them.
The symptom:
Rename from 'xxx/.git/index.lock' to 'xxx/.git/index' failed.
Should I try again? (y/n)
Spawning child processes with bInheritHandles==FALSE would not work
because no file handles would be inherited, not even the hStdXxx
handles in STARTUPINFO (stdin/stdout/stderr).
Opening every file with O_NOINHERIT does not work, either, as e.g.
git-upload-pack expects inherited file handles.
This leaves us with the only way out: creating temp files with the
O_NOINHERIT flag. This flag is Windows-specific, however. For our
purposes, it is equivalent to O_CLOEXEC (which does not exist on
Windows), so let's just open temporary files with the O_CLOEXEC flag and
map that flag to O_NOINHERIT on Windows.
As Eric Wong pointed out, we need to be careful to handle the case where
the Linux headers used to compile Git support O_CLOEXEC but the Linux
kernel used to run Git does not: it returns an EINVAL.
This fixes the test that we just introduced to demonstrate the problem.

"git difftool" by default ignores the error exit from the backend
commands it spawns, because often they signal that they found
differences by exiting with a non-zero status code just like "diff"
does; the exit status codes 126 and above however are special in
that they are used to signal that the command is not executable,
does not exist, or killed by a signal. "git difftool" has been
taught to notice these exit status codes.
