This does not pass test 33 (the last one) on Windows:

+++ git difftool --dir-diff --extcmd ls branch
Use of uninitialized value in length at d:/Src/mingw-git/git-difftool line 55.
Use of uninitialized value in length at d:/Src/mingw-git/git-difftool line 55.
exiting now at d:/Src/mingw-git/git-difftool line 120.
usage: git diff [--no-index] <path> <path>
diff --raw --no-abbrev -z branch: command returned error: 129

("exiting now" is a debugging "warn" call that I inserted)

I don't know what's going on. One possibility is that an old Git.pm is
being used, because I haven't 'make install' yet.

I'm not going to look into this, but I can run tests if you tell me what
to do.
