Just for clarification... You mentioned in response to my [3/4] review
that your accidentally-working write_script() only worked as expected
on Mac but not on Windows. When you arrived at this solution of
GIT_TEST_CRONTAB="/bin/sh ..." here, was that before or after you
fixed write_script() to take the script body from stdin?
