t9001-send-email.sh: fix expected absolute paths on Windows
Git for Windows is a native Windows program that works with native absolute paths in the drive letter style C:\dir. The auxiliary infrastructure is based on MSYS2, which uses POSIX style /C/dir. When we test for output of absolute paths produced by git.exe, we usally have to expect C:\dir style paths. To produce such expected paths, we have to use $(pwd) in the test scripts; the alternative, $PWD, produces a POSIX style path. ($PWD is a shell variable, and the shell is bash, an MSYS2 program, and operates in the POSIX realm.) There are two recently added tests that were written to expect C:\dir paths. The output that is tested is produced by `git send-email`, but behind the scenes, this is a Perl script, which also works in the POSIX realm and produces /C/dir style output. In the first test case that is changed here, replace $(pwd) by $PWD so that the expected path is constructed using /C/dir style. The second test case sets core.hooksPath to an absolute path. Since the test script talks to native git.exe, it is supposed to place a C:/dir style path into the configuration; therefore, keep $(pwd). When this configuration value is consumed by the Perl script, it is transformed to /C/dir style by the MSYS2 layer and echoed back in this form in the error message. Hence, do use $PWD for the expected value. Signed-off-by: Johannes Sixt <j6t@kdbg.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
