I hoped this was an intermittent phantom but no amount of hitting "re-run failed jobs" seems to be making it go away
and I don't see what recent change could possibly be related to this :-/
@som-snytt does this ring any bells for you?

as for why it might be 2.12.x only, maybe a JLine 2 vs JLine 3 thing?
does this ring any bells for you?
Yes, it sounds like one of those issues where you go, Why are people still on 2.12? Why are they still on Windows?
How long, oh Lord?
(If it doesn't ring a bell, don't feel obligated to go chasing it down — I can do it on client time. We're helping that client off 2.12, but it takes a while.)

It passed locally, PST.

Also Happy Valentine's. Only 3 yrs since the week I was so sick.
The weird diff is that the scala> prompt moves from before the error message to before the :quit (which is emitted on EOF).
That looks like an interweaving of stdout and stderr thing.
I wanted to try bootstrap but on -Dstarr.version, sbt fails (also after re-installing latest sbt).

This is where I'm like, I don't even want to know. That's the real tragedy, it destroys curiosity.
Edit: oh maybe something about git and version strings. Some scripts might use my local git command, git version 2.24.0.windows.2.
attempting to reproduce without outrageous long turnaround time at scala/scala#10326
the problem went away at https://github.com/scala/scala/actions/runs/4233686910 , so if I'm not able to reproduce it on the PR either, then I guess I'll just close this and hope that it doesn't come back :-/
disabling the test on Windows wouldn't be such an awful thing to do, either. our mothers would still love us
not reproducible on the PR either, so 🤷
randomly popped up, on Windows on JDK 11 this time, at https://github.com/scala/scala/actions/runs/4377747092/jobs/7661611891
@som-snytt is there a simple way to disable a partest on Windows? if it were a JUnit test, disabling would be easy. if the checkfile were empty, disabling would be easy. I'm tempted to just delete the test entirely...
on 2.13.x in scala/scala@8f0d3e3 Adriaan converted the test from a DirectTest to a ReplTest, maybe we could backport that, or maybe doing so would run afoul of JLine 2 vs 3 or run afoul of the Great REPL Refactoring
it failed again at https://github.com/scala/scala/actions/runs/4409400690/jobs/7725643280 😡
and here's a 2.13 failure, so apparently it was never 2.12 only to begin with https://github.com/scala/scala/actions/runs/4532729383/jobs/7984531431
There is no "removed their assignment in disgust." Stopping because cleaning up the computer and wondered why I have a scala repo under Windows.
Our luck on this has been considerably better in recent months 🤷
(Unless it's not luck and some version bump somewhere actually fixed it...)
I believe I can hear the demons responsible for this particular torment chuckling under my feet.
Today I had my first git corruption -- apparently a machine reboot at 11 p.m. while editing a commit message for a test on a fresh branch -- so I'm pretty sure they're planning to bring this one back, probably later this evening as I'm breathing a sigh of relief that I made it through the day.
Edit (with hand on door knob): I'd rather hear one user complain about broken paste on Windows every few years than Jenkins or whoever has a problem with the test.
