This could also be merged directly instead of #9867 |

@straight-shoota I think we can go with this PR as is instead of #9867, but I would need you to remove the Draft status. |

This PR never passed Windows CI, and that was not a fluke.
We need quick action; unfortunately Windows CI is broken in three different way on master right now. |
|
I can merge #9912 right away. After that the specs of this PR can be worked. Does that sound good? |

@oprypin Sorry, I didn't realize the failure was an acutal bug in this PR. Let's make CI reliable again =) |

I confirm that the specs get stuck immediately after exiting this spec. But I can't figure out where. Both the around_each and before_each above also finish, and then somehow spec gets stuck, before entering the next spec.

We should probably just add a quick fix to disable this spec on win32 to get CI working.

I think I understand now. Of course, the bug in entirely in Crystal's support of Windows.
This leaves a dangling fiber that's still trying to pipe output of the non-launched process. While background fibers getting permanently stuck is a known (horrible) bug, perhaps there's another bug that forgets to close something if the process never actually launched.

@straight-shoota Yes, and looks like that'll even be the somewhat long-term fix. #9913
Fixes more uses of
Process.runto handle exec error (see #9867 and #9789). Also refactors the git code used in ProjectInfo to a common location for reusability.See #9867 (comment)
