v1.7.3-rc2 has t7003 breakage on Mac OS X 10.6.4

Hi,

Just noticed a new test failure in t7003 on Mac OS X 10.6.4. Wasn't present in rc1, but is in rc2.

Relevant section of "make test" output:

  https://wincent.com/snippets/7

The failing test is "30 automatic remapping to ancestor with filename filters".

Here's a segment of the output of "sh -x t7003-filter-branch.sh" from inside the "t" directory (this is just the part near test 30):

And here's the entire output of "sh -x t7003-filter-branch.sh" (thousands of lines long):

This is on a pretty "stock" version of Mac OS X, using Apple-supplied Bash:

  GNU bash, version 3.2.48(1)-release (x86_64-apple-darwin10.0)
  Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

According to "git bisect", this is the change that is responsible for the breakage:

7ec344d802970782036146e29ba2213e86d49fe1 is the first bad commit

    filter-branch: retire --remap-to-ancestor
    
    We can be clever and know by ourselves when we need the behavior
    implied by "--remap-to-ancestor". No need to encumber users by having
    them exposed to it as a tunable. (Option kept for backward compatibility,
    but it's now a no-op.)

Please let me know if you need any further info to troubleshoot the issue.

Ok, just tested it and confirmed that that topic fixes the test breakage for me, thanks to 77f2e4f5f.

Curses on the Mac's case-insensitive filesystem, again...
