Back in commit cf9f34521 (cmake: bump minimum version to 2.8.11,
2017-09-06), we have bumped the minimum CMake version to require at
least v2.8.11. The main hold-backs back then were distributions like
RHEL/CentOS as well as Ubuntu Trusty, which caused us to not target a
more modern version. Nowadays, Ubuntu Trusty has been EOL'd and CentOS 6
has CMake v3.6.1 available via the EPEL6 repository, and thus it seems
fair to upgrade to a more recent version.
Going through repology [1], one can see that all supported mainstream
distributions do in fact have CMake 3 available. Going through the list,
the minimum version that is supported by all mainstream distros is in
fact v3.5.1:
- CentOS 6 via EPEL6: 3.6.1
- Debian Oldstable: 3.7.2
- Fedora 26: 3.8.2
- OpenMandriva 3.x: 3.5.1
- Slackware 14.2: 3.5.2
- Ubuntu 16.04: 3.5.1
Consequentally, let's upgrade CMake to the minimum version of 3.5.1 and
remove all the version CMake checks that aren't required anymore.

Writing Clar tests for libgit2
For information on the Clar testing framework and a detailed introduction please visit:
-
Write your modules and tests. Use good, meaningful names.
-
Make sure you actually build the tests by setting:
cmake -DBUILD_CLAR=ON build/ -
Test:
./build/libgit2_clar -
Make sure everything is fine.
-
Send your pull request. That's it.
Memory leak checks
These are automatically run as part of CI, but if you want to check locally:
Linux
Uses valgrind:
$ cmake -DBUILD_CLAR=ON -DVALGRIND=ON ..
$ cmake --build .
$ valgrind --leak-check=full --show-reachable=yes --num-callers=50 --suppressions=../libgit2_clar.supp \
./libgit2_clar
macOS
Uses leaks, which requires XCode installed:
$ MallocStackLogging=1 MallocScribble=1 MallocLogFile=/dev/null CLAR_AT_EXIT="leaks -quiet \$PPID" \
./libgit2_clar
