test-path-utils.c: remove incorrect assumption
In normalize_ceiling_entry(), we test that normalized paths end with slash, *unless* the path to be normalized was already the root directory. However, normalize_path_copy() does not even enforce this condition. Even worse: on Windows, the root directory gets translated into a Windows directory by the Bash before being passed to `git.exe` (or `test-path-utils.exe`), which means that we cannot even know whether the path that was passed to us was the root directory to begin with. This issue has already caused endless hours of trying to "fix" the MSYS2 runtime, only to break other things due to MSYS2 ensuring that the converted path maintains the same state as the input path with respect to any final '/'. So let's just forget about this test. It is non-essential to Git's operation, anyway. Acked-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Ray Donnelly <mingw.android@gmail.com>
