match: don't util.normpath() cwd The problem here is that `util.normpath()` calls `util.pconvert()`, which switches to Unix style separators. That results in two test failures like this since 5685ce2ea3bf: --- c:/Users/Matt/hg/tests/test-globalopts.t +++ c:/Users/Matt/hg/tests/test-globalopts.t.err @@ -89,7 +89,7 @@ [255] $ hg -R b ann a/a abort: a/a not under root '$TESTTMP/b' - (consider using '--cwd b') + (consider using '--cwd ..\$TESTTMP\b') [255] $ hg log abort: no repository found in '$TESTTMP' (.hg not found)! ERROR: test-globalopts.t output changed Martin originally had `os.path.normpath()` (which *would* work here too), but changed it during review. He didn't remember why he thought any form is needed here. Most uses simply pass '' or `repo.getcwd()`, so these should generally be in local format anyway. It seems better if `cwd` and `root` use consistent styles here. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D7725

If you can't run the entire testsuite for some reason (it can be
difficult on Windows), please at least run `contrib/check-code.py` on
any files you've modified and run `python contrib/check-commit` on any
commits you've made (for example, `python contrib/check-commit
273ce12ad8f1` will report some style violations on a very old commit).
