ci: install test dependencies for linux-musl
The linux-musl CI job executes tests on Alpine Linux, which is based on
musl libc instead of glibc. We're missing some test dependencies though,
which causes us to skip a subset of tests.
Install these test dependencies to increase our test coverage on this
platform. There are still some missing test dependecies, but these do
not have a corresponding package in the Alpine repositories:
- p4 and p4d, both parts of the Perforce version control system.
- cvsps, which generates patch sets for CVS.
- Subversion and the SVN::Core Perl library, the latter of which is
not available in the Alpine repositories. While the tool itself is
available, all Subversion-related tests are skipped without the
SVN::Core Perl library anyway.
The Apache2-based tests require a bit more care though. For one, the
module path is different on Alpine Linux, which requires us to add it to
the list of known module paths to detect it. But second, the WebDAV
module on Alpine Linux is broken because it does not bundle the default
database backend [1]. We thus need to skip the WebDAV-based tests on
Alpine Linux for now.

Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals.
Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License version 2 (some parts of it are under different licenses, compatible with the GPLv2). It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net.
Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.
Many Git online resources are accessible from https://git-scm.com/ including full documentation and Git related tools.
See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see Documentation/giteveryday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and Documentation/git-<commandname>.txt for documentation of each command. If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be read with man gittutorial or git help tutorial, and the documentation of each command with man git-<commandname> or git help <commandname>.
CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt (man gitcvs-migration or git help cvs-migration if git is installed).
The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission and Documentation/CodingGuidelines).
Those wishing to help with error message, usage and informational message string translations (localization l10) should see po/README.md (a po file is a Portable Object file that holds the translations).
To subscribe to the list, send an email with just “subscribe git” in the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org (not the Git list). The mailing list archives are available at https://lore.kernel.org/git/, http://marc.info/?l=git and other archival sites.
Issues which are security relevant should be disclosed privately to the Git Security mailing list git-security@googlegroups.com.
The maintainer frequently sends the “What's cooking” reports that list the current status of various development topics to the mailing list. The discussion following them give a good reference for project status, development direction and remaining tasks.
The name “git” was given by Linus Torvalds when he wrote the very first version. He described the tool as “the stupid content tracker” and the name as (depending on your mood):
