Most of the t4013 tests go through a list of sample command lines, and each of them is executed and its output compared with an expected one stored in t4013/ directory. Allow these lines to begin with a colon followed by magic word(s) so that test conditions can easily be tweaked. The expected use that will happen in later steps of this is to run tests expecting the traditional output and run the same test without the GIT_PRINT_SHA1_ELLIPSIS=yes environment exported for (perhaps some of) them, which will have to expect different output. Since all of the existing tests are meant to run with the environment, use the magic word "noellipses" to cause the variable not to be set and exported. As this step does not add any new test with the magic word, all tests still run with the environment variable, expecting the traditional output, but it will change soon.
