copy_repos should work on non-unix platforms, yes. We're already using
os.popen in the tests to run other binaries, no problems there.
One thing I'd like to see, though, is more serious checking of the trace
output -- at least matching against valid patterns would be nice.
Another issue is the 1k reads. Our test repositories are small enough
that it should be perfectly OK to slurp the whole dump file into memory
at once. Or maybe limit the read buffer to 100k, definitely not 1k.
