This patch series allows running the test suite and/or running an uninstalled build without dashed commands in the PATH. Changes since version 2: merged - The first 3 old patches (fixes to tests to avoid dashed commands, and added GIT_TEST_INSTALLED documentation) are now in master, so I am not duplicating them here. 1/3 - Changed to use "@@BUILD_DIR@@" instead of "__GIT_EXEC_DIR__" for sed substitution, and to use single quotes around it when setting environment variables in wrap-for-bin.sh. But this patch still does not really try to handle strange characters in $(shell pwd); see earlier email thread about this. (This is newer than pu.) 2/3 - Fixed a couple of spelling errors in the --with-dashes documentation, and avoid "TOP". (This is newer than pu.) 3/3 - Replaced wording for running an uninstalled git. It now uses Junio's text: no change compared to his version of this patch that is currently in pu.
