The testsuite didn't run through for me because the php symlink() function
was missing.
It is only available on Windows Visa/Server 2008 or higher.
This commit fixes the issue by checking if the method exists, and if not,
marks the test as skipped because of a non-matching precondition.
This fixes a minor inaccuracy issue when creating git checkout commands
for branches.
The git checkout command used within `GitDownloader::updateToCommit()`
does not use the "`--`" sequence to separate branch from file parameters.
This leads to an inaccuary as git tries as well the branch name as file
name. If the non-existent branch is actually the name of a file, the file
is checked out. If the non-existent branch is not the name of a file, an
error message is given:
> error: pathspec 'non-existent-branch' did not match any file(s) known to
git.
Both cases are not expected for the program flow in
`GitDownloader::updateToCommit()`.
The only thing that is expected is a non-existent branch to fail to
checkout - but with a different error message:
> // reference was not found (prints "fatal: reference is not a tree:
$ref")
This can be easily fixed by adding the missing separator when constructing
the command which is applied with this commit.
fixescomposer/composer#3823
Ran tests with both PHP5.5.9-1ubuntu4.5 and HHVM 3.6. Test fails on HHVM only
if I back out the ClassMapGenerator.php change.
Nightly releases could change in unpredictable way.
So they should not fail the whole build.
However we could catch problems and breaking changes
on next versions of HHVM early.
This is useful when you want to use composer to manage dependencies, but
don't actually want your project to be installable as a composer package.
Any issues that would prevent publishing are still shown, but as a warning
instead of an error.
