The last test case checks whether unpacked objects receive the time stamp
of the pack file. Due to different implementations of stat(2) by MSYS and
our version in compat/mingw.c, the test fails in about half of the test
runs.
Note the following facts:
- The test uses perl's -M operator to compare the time stamps. Since we
depend on MSYS perl, the result of this operator is based on MSYS's
implementation of the stat(2) call.
- NTFS on Windows records fractional seconds.
- The MSYS implementation of stat(2) *rounds* fractional seconds to full
seconds instead of truncating them. This becomes obvious by comparing the
modification times reported by 'ls --full-time $f' and 'stat $f' for
various files $f.
- Our implementation of stat(2) in compat/mingw.c *truncates* to full
seconds.
The consequence of this is that
- add_packed_git() picks up a truncated whole second modification time
from the pack file time stamp, which is then used for the loose objects,
while the pack file retains its time stamp in fractional seconds;
- but the test case compared the pack file's rounded modification times
to the loose objects' truncated modification times.
And half of the time the rounded modification time is not the same as its
truncated modification time.
The fix is that we replace perl by 'test-chmtime -v +0', which prints the
truncated whole-second mtime without modifying it.

The -A option calls pack-objects with the --unpack-unreachable option so
that the unreachable objects in local packs are left in the local object
store loose. But if the -d option to repack was _not_ used, then these
unpacked loose objects are redundant and unnecessary.
Update tests in t7701.

We try to avoid using the "-q" or "-e" options, as they are
largely useless, as explained in aadbe44f.
There is one exception for "-e" here, which is in t7701 used
to produce an "or" of patterns. This can be rewritten as an
egrep pattern.
This patch also removes use of "grep -F" in favor of the
more widely available "fgrep".

Unpacked objects should receive the timestamp of the pack they were
unpacked from. Check.

The previous behavior of the -A option was to retain any previously
packed objects which had become unreferenced, and place them into the newly
created pack file. Since git-gc, when run automatically with the --auto
option, calls repack with the -A option, this had the effect of retaining
unreferenced packed objects indefinitely. To avoid this scenario, the
user was required to run git-gc with the little known --prune option or
to manually run repack with the -a option.
This patch changes the behavior of the -A option so that unreferenced
objects that exist in any pack file being replaced, will be unpacked into
the repository. The unreferenced loose objects can then be garbage collected
by git-gc (i.e. git-prune) based on the gc.pruneExpire setting.
Also add new tests for checking whether unreferenced objects which were
previously packed are properly left in the repository unpacked after
repacking.
