cmake: support for testing git with ctest
This patch provides an alternate way to test git using ctest. CTest ships with CMake, so there is no additional dependency being introduced. To perform the tests with ctest do this after building: ctest -j[number of jobs] NOTE: -j is optional, the default number of jobs is 1 Each of the jobs does this: cd t/ && sh t[something].sh The reason for using CTest is that it logs the output of the tests in a neat way, which can be helpful during diagnosis of failures. After the tests have run ctest generates three log files located in `build-directory`/Testing/Temporary/ These log files are: CTestCostData.txt: This file contains the time taken to complete each test. LastTestsFailed.log: This log file contains the names of the tests that have failed in the run. LastTest.log: This log file contains the log of all the tests that have run. A snippet of the file is given below. 10/901 Testing: D:/my/git-master/t/t0009-prio-queue.sh 10/901 Test: D:/my/git-master/t/t0009-prio-queue.sh Command: "sh.exe" "D:/my/git-master/t/t0009-prio-queue.sh" Directory: D:/my/git-master/t "D:/my/git-master/t/t0009-prio-queue.sh" Output: ---------------------------------------------------------- ok 1 - basic ordering ok 2 - mixed put and get ok 3 - notice empty queue ok 4 - stack order passed all 4 test(s) 1..4 <end of output> Test time = 1.11 sec NOTE: Testing only works when building in source for now.
