There's a mis-replacement of multiple `..` `..` on the same line in
t9300-fast-import.sh. I've sent you a pull request with a fixup.

I'm not sure about this one:

We're inside " from the test_expect_success line. We used to have a
literal " (because of the backslash), we now have a closing " because
you removed the \. So, the sed command used to be protected by
double-quotes, and it is now outside them. Compare:

$ sh -c "echo \"\`date\`\""                 
Wed May 14 18:47:54 MEST 2014
$ sh -c "echo "$(date)""                    
Wed

In your case, it doesn't break because the expected output of sed
contains no space, but that seems dangerous to me.

I do not understand the use of the \ in front of the ` in the original
code.

The correct code should be

	test x\"$(sed -n -e 4p < file)\" = x4 &&

I guess.

        perl -i.bak -p -e 's/^4\$/4444/' file &&
        perl -i.bak -p -e 's/^7\$/7777/' file &&
-       test x\"\`sed -n -e 4p < file\`\" = x4444 &&
-       test x\"\`sed -n -e 7p < file\`\" = x7777 &&
+       test x"$(sed -n -e 4p < file)" = x4444 &&
+       test x"$(sed -n -e 7p < file)" = x7777 &&

Likewise.

-               test x\"\`sed -n -e 4p < file\`\" = x4444 &&
-               test x\"\`sed -n -e 7p < file\`\" = x7777 &&

-               test x\"\`sed -n -e 61p < file\`\" = x6611
+               test x"$(sed -n -e 4p < file)" = x4444 &&

More or less the same issue with

I'm not sure what's the intent of the \ in front of ` in the original
code, but changing it to $(...) changes the meaning:

$ sh -c "echo \`date\`" 
Wed May 14 18:58:19 MEST 2014
$ sh -c "echo \$(date\)"
sh: 1: Syntax error: end of file unexpected (expecting ")")

I didn't investigate closely, but I'm getting test failures without your
patch, and the script stops in the middle with it so it does break
something.

There is an actual change other than sed + review and trivial fix here.
That makes the review harder. Such change should IMHO not be part of the
same series.

-       git commit -m '/bar/d should be in the log' &&
+       git commit -m "bar/d should be in the log" &&

You lost a / here.

        git svn dcommit -i bar &&
-       test -z \"\`git diff refs/heads/my-bar refs/remotes/bar\`\" &&
+       test -z $(git diff refs/heads/my-bar refs/remotes/bar) &&

Did you not loos the \"...\" whitespace protection here?

-       test -z \"\`git diff refs/heads/my-bar refs/remotes/bar\`\" &&
+       test -z "$(git diff refs/heads/my-bar refs/remotes/bar)" &&

That seems to be the correct way of doing what you tried right above.

Same problem as above, this \$( is broken.

My advice: apply my small fix for multiple `...` `...`, and eject the
other patches from the series for now, they are distracting reviewers.

That should lead to a trivially-correct series with ~80 patches. Once
this one is accepted, the 4 remaining patches can be fixed and reviewed
more carefully (Cc Eric Wong <normalperson@xxxxxxxx> since the patches
are about git-svn).
