Ok, so here is an attempt to improve the ability of the JGit's unit
tests to delete temporary repositories. This has probably been seen
by many, but Jonas Fonseca raised the issue.

The background is that on Windows you cannot delete files that are
open and mmapped files are open until they get unmapped, which in
Java is beyond explicit programmer control. You can only free the
resources and pray that the GC does the work. Fortunately it usually
does. It turned out our testcases weren't even trying to clean up
properly.

Robin Rosenberg (4):
  Make the cleanup less verbose when it fails to delete temporary
    stuff.
  Add shutdown hooks to try to clean up after unit tests anyway
  Cleanup malformed test cases
  Automatically clean up any repositories created by the test cases
