Hi, There were a few test files added in test262 that push the total path size beyond the 260 character limit on Windows machines; unfortunately, that makes it very difficult to build v8 because gclient sync fails with a "You have unstaged changes" error in test262, caused by the missing files.
If I try to manually run 'git reset --hard' in test262, this is what I'm seeing: D:\work\engine\v8\test\test262\data>git reset --hard error: unable to create file test/built-ins/String/prototype/split/arguments-are-objects-and-instance-is-string-first-object-have-overrided-to-string-function-and-value-of-function-that-throw-exception-second-object-have-overrided-value-of-function-that-throw-exception.js: Filename too long error: unable to create file test/built-ins/String/prototype/split/arguments-are-objects-and-instance-is-string-first-object-have-overrided-to-string-function-second-object-have-overrided-value-of-function-and-to-string-function-that-throw-exception.js: Filename too long error: unable to create file test/built-ins/String/prototype/split/arguments-are-objects-and-instance-is-string-first-object-have-overrided-to-string-function-that-throw-exception-second-object-have-overrided-value-of-function-that-throw-exception.js: Filename too long fatal: Could not reset index file to revision 'HEAD'. The repro steps are literally just running `fetch v8`, which fails with this error message: v8\test\test262\data (ERROR) ---------------------------------------- [0:00:00] Started. [0:00:01] Finished running: git config remote.origin.url [0:00:01] Finished running: git rev-list -n 1 HEAD [0:00:01] Finished running: git rev-parse --abbrev-ref=strict HEAD ---------------------------------------- Error: 12> 12> ____ v8\test\test262\data at ad8a5e9940ee60d1ecb6e150b7aecf09b17545dd 12> You have unstaged changes. 12> Please commit, stash, or reset. Subprocess failed with return code 1. Any tips about how to resolve this? It looks like on Windows 10 there is a registry hack to support filepaths longer than 260 characters, but that won't work on older Windows versions and it'll be a pain to configure in CI environments without administrative control. Can I temporarily hold back test262?
