Junio, please pull git://repo.or.cz/git/jrn.git svn-fe-maint to receive the following fix. The patch first visited the list two months ago[1] and was discussed again last month[2] and seems to have been well liked both times (well, I know I like it). The tests it removes - are missing an EXECKEEPSPID prerequisite on Windows - use a : $((i = i + 1)) construct which does not seem to be portable to old versions of dash - are pointless, an eyesore, and a pain to maintain What was the author thinking? Sorry to let this sit for so long.
