X Title: Support Python 3.12 on Cygwin by EliahKagan · Pull Request #1988 · gitpython-developers/GitPython
Description: Cygwin has had Python 3.9 as its latest version for a while, with progress both on moving past 3.9.16 for Python 3.9, as well as on packaging Python 3.y for higher y, stalled due to the problem described in #1814. However, packaging work has resumed. This includes Cygwin builds of Python 3.12 (which is successfully packaged for the parallel/forked MSYS2 target). Such builds are marked "test" and do not work properly yet (reports and discussion can be seen in this month's list archive). Since GitPython has long-standing support for Cygwin, which I suspect remains one of the important use cases of GitPython (with some alternatives not supporting Cygwin), it seems to me that it is worthwhile to support Python 3.12 on Cygwin, as well as to test it on CI. Since the Cygwin downstream build of Python 3.12 is currently experimental and not fully working, I don't expect GitPython to work with it yet. This PR is for testing that, and for keeping track of changes that are known to be wanted whenever Cygwin Python 3.12 is working. I have encountered substantial differences between CI and my local setup with Cygwin in the past, so testing this on CI now may help avoid surprises. It may also lead to the discovery of bugs, or information about known bugs, that could be useful to report on the Cygwin mailing list. This PR is definitely not ready to be merged. This PR is separate from and in parallel to #1955 (which is about Python 3.13 and blocked due to a need to change some GitPython code to support that version on Windows), because they are conceptually separate with no known overlap in blockers or in changes that would fix them, and because it seems to me that having two PRs makes the situation clear, both to me and to other people who might wish to contribute.
