The "git" command prepends the exec-path to the PATH environment
variable for processes it spawns. That is how ". git-sh-setup" in
our scripted Porcelains can find the dot-sourced file in the
exec-path location that is not usually on user's PATH.
When t2300 runs, because it is not spawned by the "git" command, the
scriptlet being tested did not run with a realistic setting of PATH
environment. It lacked the exec-path on the PATH, and failed to
find the dot-sourced file. A recent update to t2300 attempted to
fix this, with "PATH=$(git --exec-path):$PATH", which has been the
recommended way around v1.6.0 days (a script whose original was
written before that release that survives to this day is likely to
have such a line).
However, the "git --exec-path" command outputs C:\path\to\exec\dir
(not /c/path/to/exec/dir) on Windows; the recent update failed to
consider the problem that comes from it.
Even though Git itself, when doing the equivalent internally, does
so in a platform native way (i.e. on Windows, C:\path\to\exec\dir is
prepended to the existing value of %PATH% using ';' as a component
separator), the result is further massaged by bash and gets turned
into $PATH that uses /c/path/to/exec/dir with ':' separating the
components, which is the form understood by bash, so scripted
Porcelains find commands from PATH correctly.
An end user script written in shell, however, cannot prepend
"C:\path\to\exec\dir:" to the existing value of $PATH and expect
bash to magically turn it into the form it understands. In other
words, "PATH=$(git --exec-path):$PATH" does not work as an emulation
of what "Git" internally does to the PATH on Windows.
To correctly emulate how exec-path is prepended to the PATH
environment internally on Windows, we'd need to convert
C:\git-sdk-64\usr\src\git to at least /c\git-sdk-64\usr\src\git
ourselves before prepending it to PATH.

When we run scripted Porcelains, "git" potty has set up the $PATH by
prepending $GIT_EXEC_PATH, the path given by "git --exec-path=$there
$cmd", etc. already. Because of this, scripted Porcelains can
dot-source shell script library like git-sh-setup with simple dot
without specifying any path.
t2300 however dot-sources git-sh-setup without adjusting $PATH like
the real "git" potty does. This has not been a problem so far, but
once git-sh-setup wants to rely on the $PATH adjustment, just like
any scripted Porcelains already do, it would become one. It cannot
for example dot-source another shell library without specifying the
full path to it by prefixing $(git --exec-path).

Correct faulty recommendation to use "git submodule deinit ." when
de-initialising all submodules, which would result in a strange
error message in a pathological corner case.

Running tests with '-x' option to trace the individual command
executions is a useful way to debug test scripts, but some tests
that capture the standard error stream and check what the command
said can be broken with the trace output mixed in. When running
our tests under "bash", however, we can redirect the trace output
to another file descriptor to keep the standard error of programs
being tested intact.

"git describe --contains" often made a hard-to-justify choice of
tag to give name to a given commit, because it tried to come up
with a name with smallest number of hops from a tag, causing an old
commit whose close descendant that is recently tagged were not
described with respect to an old tag but with a newer tag. It did
not help that its computation of "hop" count was further tweaked to
penalize being on a side branch of a merge. The logic has been
updated to favor using the tag with the oldest tagger date, which
is a lot easier to explain to the end users: "We describe a commit
in terms of the (chronologically) oldest tag that contains the
commit."

name-rev: include taggerdate in considering the best name

Commit f2f0267 (archive-tar: use xsnprintf for trivial
formatting, 2015-09-24) converted cases of "sprintf" to
"xsnprintf", but accidentally left one as just "snprintf".
This meant that we could silently truncate the resulting
buffer instead of flagging an error.
In practice, this is impossible to achieve, as we are
formatting a ustar checksum, which can be at most 7
characters. But the point of xsnprintf is to document and
check for "should be impossible" conditions; this site was
just accidentally mis-converted during f2f0267.

The "user.useConfigOnly" configuration variable makes it an error
if users do not explicitly set user.name and user.email. However,
its check was not done early enough and allowed another error to
trigger, reporting that the default value we guessed from the

experience as we want the users to set user.name/user.email without
relying on the auto-detection at all.
