From c9771e79c3b45c65883efb283b76d9d310cce6e2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Heiko Voigt Date: Wed, 16 Jun 2010 20:11:00 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] work around misdetection of stdin attached to a tty Git on Windows was made aware of the fact that sometimes a file may be used by another process and so an operation may fail but the user might be able to fix it and is asking for confirmation whether it should retry. This is implemented in a way that git only asks in case stdin and stderr are attached to a tty. Unfortunately this seems to be misdetected sometimes causing the testsuite to hang when git is waiting for a user answer. This patch works around the situation.
