Yeah, the ones in Documentation/*.txt are OK IMO. The users reading
the docs probably don't have a shell old enough to complain about
this.

Likewise for contrib/hg-to-git/hg-to-git.py and gitweb/INSTALL.

These we probably want to fix:

    git-am.sh:          export GIT_MERGE_VERBOSITY=0
    git-rebase.sh:          export GIT_MERGE_VERBOSITY=1
    git-stash.sh:           export GIT_MERGE_VERBOSITY=0

and maybe this:

    git-gui/lib/shortcut.tcl:                               puts $fd
"export PATH=[sq [file dirname $::_git]]:\$PATH &&"

This is the only other thing in the test suite:

    t/t1509-root-worktree.sh:export GIT_DIR="$TRASH_DIRECTORY/.git"
    t/t1509-root-worktree.sh:export GIT_WORK_TREE=/
    t/t1509-root-worktree.sh:export GIT_DIR="$(echo
$TRASH_DIRECTORY|sed 's,^/,,')/.git"

But I didn't touch that since nobody runs that test anyway, and if
they do having a strict POSIX shell is the least of their problems.
