On Microsoft Windows, a directory name should never end with a period.
Quoting from Microsoft documentation[1]:
Do not end a file or directory name with a space or a period.
Although the underlying file system may support such names, the
Windows shell and user interface does not.
Naming a directory with a trailing period is indeed perilous:
% git init foo
% cd foo
% mkdir a.
% git status
warning: could not open directory 'a./': No such file or directory
The t1010 "setup" test:
for d in a a. a0
do
mkdir "$d" && echo "$d/one" >"$d/one" &&
git add "$d"
done &&
runs afoul of this Windows limitation, as can be observed when running
the test verbosely:
error: open("a./one"): No such file or directory
error: unable to index file 'a./one'
fatal: adding files failed
The reason this problem has gone unnoticed for so long is twofold.
First, the failed `git add` is swallowed silently because the loop is
not terminated explicitly by `|| return 1` to signal the failure.
Second, none of the tests in this script care about the literal
directory names ("a", "a.", "a0") or the specific number of tree
entries. They care instead about the order of entries in the tree, and
that the tree synthesized in the index and created by `git write-tree`
matches the tree created by the output of `git ls-tree` fed into `git
mktree`, thus the absence of "a./one" has no impact on the tests.
Skipping these tests on Windows by, for instance, checking the
FUNNYNAMES predicate would avoid the problem, however, the funny-looking
name is not what is being tested here. Rather, the tests are about
checking that `git mktree` produces stable results for various input
conditions, such as when the input order is not consistent or when an
object is missing.
Therefore, resolve the problem simply by using a directory name which is
legal on Windows and sorts the same as "a.". While at it, add the
missing `|| return 1` to the loop body in order to catch this sort of
problem in the future.

Mark some tests that match "*{mktree,commit,diff,grep,rm,merge,hunk}*"
as passing when git is compiled with SANITIZE=leak. They'll now be
listed as running under the "GIT_TEST_PASSING_SANITIZE_LEAK=true" test
mode (the "linux-leaks" CI target).
These were picked because we still have a lot of failures in adjacent
areas, and we didn't have much if any coverage of e.g. grep and diff
before this change, we could still whitelist a lot more tests, but
let's stop for now.

As of the last commit, we can use "perl" instead of
"$PERL_PATH" when running tests, as the former is now a
function which uses the latter. As the shorter "perl" is
easier on the eyes, let's switch to using it everywhere.
This is not quite a mechanical s/$PERL_PATH/perl/
replacement, though. There are some places where we invoke
perl from a script we generate on the fly, and those scripts
do not have access to our internal shell functions. The
result can be double-checked by running:
ln -s /bin/false bin-wrappers/perl
make test
which continues to pass even after this patch.

Otherwise it will be split at a space after "Program" when it is set
to "\\Program Files\perl" or something silly like that.

GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS defines PERL_PATH to be used in the test suite. Only a
few tests already actually use this variable when perl is needed. The
other test just call 'perl' and it might happen that the wrong perl
interpreter is used.
This becomes problematic on Windows, when the perl interpreter that is
compiled and installed on the Windows system is used, because this perl
interpreter might introduce some unexpected LF->CRLF conversions.
This patch makes sure that $PERL_PATH is used everywhere in the test suite
and that the correct perl interpreter is used.

The last two tests here were always supposed to fail in the sense
that, according to code and documentation, mktree should read non-recursive
ls-tree output, but not recursive one, and therefore explicitely refuses
to deal with slashes.
Adjust the test (must_fail) so that it succeeds when mktree dies on
slashes.

We need to allow input lines that point at objects that we do not
have when dealing with submodule entries anyway. This adds an explicit
option to allow missing objects of other types, to be consistent with
the use of --info-only option to the update-index command and --missing-ok
option to the write-tree command.

So far mktree (which has always been a quick hack) had no test.
At least give it a bit of test coverage.
