This patch changes every occurrence of "! git" -- with the meaning
that a git call has to gracefully fail -- into "test_must_fail git".
This is useful to
- make sure the test does not fail because of a signal,
e.g. SIGSEGV, and
- advertise the use of "test_must_fail" for new tests.

On a case sensitive filesystem, "git reset --hard" might refuse to
overwrite a file whose name differs only by case, even if
core.ignorecase is set. It is not clear which circumstances cause this
behavior. This commit simply works around the problem by removing
the case changing file before running "git reset --hard".

Add should recognize if a file is added with a different case and add
the file using its original name.

Case insensitive file handling is only active when
core.ignorecase = true. Hence, we need to set it to give the tests
in t0050 a chance to succeed. Setting core.ignorecase explicitly
allows to test some aspects of case handling even on case sensitive file
systems.

Verify if core.ignorecase is automatically set to 'true' during
repository initialization if the file system is case insensitive,
and unset or 'false' otherwise.

Older versions of perl (such as 5.005) don't understand -CO, nor
do they understand the "U" pack specifier. Instead of using perl,
let's just printf the binary bytes we are interested in.

Git has difficulties on file systems that do not properly
distinguish case or modify filenames in unexpected ways. The two
major examples are Windows and Mac OS X. Both systems preserve
case of file names but do not distinguish between filenames that
differ only by case. Simple operations such as "git mv" or
"git merge" can fail unexpectedly. In addition, Mac OS X normalizes
unicode, which make git's life even harder.
This commit adds tests that currently fail but should pass if
file system as decribed above are fully supported. The test need
to be run on Windows and Mac X as they already pass on Linux.
Mitch Tishmack is the original author of the tests for unicode
normalization.
[jc: fixed-up so that it will use test_expect_success to test
on sanely behaving filesystems.]
