Description
Tested on
GitPython version: 1.0.2
Windows: Server 2012
Git: 2.7.0.windows
To reproduce
import os
import shutil
from git import Repo
path_to_repo = 'somepath'
r = Repo.init(path_to_repo)
with file(os.path.join(path_to_repo, 'test.txt'), 'a'):
os.utime(os.path.join(path_to_repo, 'test.txt'), None)
r.index.add(['test.txt'])
r.index.commit('Test commit')
shutil.rmtree(path_to_repo)you'll se
WindowsError: [Error 32] The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process:
Also you'll see that there are four git subprocesses running until python process will be closed (I was using REPL and this subprocesses were hanging there until I closed REPL).
They are git cat-file --batch-check and git cat-file --batch.
On macos calling this example in REPL leads to appearing of two non finished git-processes too.
Process Explorer show that the folder (path_to_repo) is locked by 4 git processes.
Maybe there is concept that Repo should be closed somehow but i could not find that kind of API.
Some GitPython-tests fails with this error (tests run on master branch):

P.S. I know it is a problem to test on windows platform. My colleague mentioned AppVeyor CI for windows CI. Pip-accel is using it.
