Using 'test_must_be_empty' is preferable to '! test -s', because it
gives a helpful error message if the given file is unexpectedly not
empty, while the latter remains completely silent. Furthermore, it
also catches cases when the given file unexpectedly does not exist at
all.
This patch was basically created by:
sed -i -e 's/! test -s/test_must_be_empty/' t[0-9]*.sh
with the following notable exceptions:
- The '! test -s' check in '.gitmodules ignore=dirty suppresses
submodules with untracked content' in 't7508-status.sh' is left
as-is, because it's bogus and, therefore, it's subject of a
dedicated patch.
- The '! test -s' checks in 't9131-git-svn-empty-symlink.sh' and
't9135-git-svn-moved-branch-empty-file.sh' are immediately
preceeded by a 'test -f' to ensure that the files exist in the
first place. 'test_must_be_empty' ensures that as well, so those
'test -f' commands are removed as well.

Even though "-L" is POSIX, the former is more portable, and
we tend to prefer it already.

Many tests depend on that symbolic links work. This introduces a check
that sets the prerequisite tag SYMLINKS if the file system supports
symbolic links. Since so many tests have to check for this prerequisite,
we do the check in test-lib.sh, so that we don't need to repeat the test
in many scripts.
To check for 'ln -s' failures, you can use a FAT partition on Linux:
$ mkdosfs -C git-on-fat 1000000
$ sudo mount -o loop,uid=j6t,gid=users,shortname=winnt git-on-fat /mnt
Clone git to /mnt and
$ GIT_SKIP_TESTS='t0001.1[34] t0010 t1301 t403[34] t4129.[47] t5701.7
t7701.3 t9100 t9101.26 t9119 t9124.[67] t9200.10 t9600.6' \
make test
(These additionally skipped tests depend on POSIX permissions that FAT on
Linux does not provide.)

Even though this will break things for some extremely rare repositories
used by broken Windows clients, it's probably not worth enabling this by
default as it has negatively affected many more users than it has helped
from what we've seen so far.
The extremely rare repositories that have broken symlinks in them will be
silently corrupted in import; but users can still reenable this option and
restart the import.

Since dbc6c74d08, git-svn has had
an expensive check for broken symlinks that exist in some
repositories. This leads to a heavy performance hit on
repositories with many empty blobs that are not supposed to be
symlinks.
The workaround is enabled by default; and may be disabled via:
git config svn.brokenSymlinkWorkaround false

Broken SVN clients generate empty files with the svn:special set
to '*'. This attempts to denote a symlink pointing to a file
with an empty path (""), which cannot be generated on a POSIX
system.
Thus, we mimic the behavior of svn(1) and create a zero-byte
file in our tree.
