Re: Test "t0300-credentials" is failing on Arch/Artix: asks to enter the Username/Password in an infinite loop

Brian, thank you very much for checking my logs: indeed, unfortunately
my system is Arch-based so we can't compare it directly with
Debian/rules. Thank you for an idea about /dev/shm , although I would
like to clarify that while it *might* be what is failing this
particular test - the causes of failure at .out files are different as
we could see by the prior 0300/0301/0302 and some future tests (could
share more logs if needed). But the external appearance of these
errors (Username/Password prompts) is similar to a user and that may
indicate some common pattern between the problems, i.e. maybe there is
some extra shell precaution needed on some systems (although I'm a bit
puzzled why my distro's packager seemingly didn't have such an issue).
I am still trying to build with skipping as few tests as possible, at
the moment I have to skip the following: t0300 t0301 t0302 t5003 t5411
t5540 t5541 t5550 t5551 t5559 t5563 t5564 (adding them to
GIT_SKIP_TESTS one-by-one, maybe there'd be more)
