It was just slapping on a path separator to the front of the path to
make it absolute, but on windows, a path like "//foo/bar" actually
has a network "drive" of "//foo" and so that broke the test case.
Since "a:foo" is a somehow relative path on windows
(who knows how), drop any drive from the input. But dropDrive also drops
any leading path separator, making the input path relative. So now
it should be safe to slapp on a leading path separator.
Useful for eg, replicating failures in ghci. No need for this to be a
smart constructor, as long as it's used with valid filepaths, it's ok
and if not the test breaks.
This was not a good test, it broke the requirement that
relPathDirToFileAbs take absolute paths. And it failed when the two
input paths were eg, the same but differently normalized.
Replaced with some tests of the real basics of that function.
Configuring chunking and encryption for a git remote has no effect, so
skip testing those variants in the TestRemote call.
It would be better if TestRemote itself could do this, but it
doesn't seem possible there. There is no way to look at a Remote and
tell if it supports chunking or encryption.
Note that, while the test suite displays output as it it's testing
exporting, it actually skips doing anything for the tests when run on
the git remote. So at least does not waste time even though the output
is not ideal.

The test suite contains its own tests that test a lot of basic stuff
about git remotes, mostly in passing to set up other situations.
But testremote does try some unusual edge cases, which may as
well be tried for git remotes as well as directory, especially since
it's so little code to add it.
