There is no option to git-rev-list to not write any output to stderr

Okay, this one will go away with the new API I'm writing, which uses cat-file --batch-check instead of rev-list. In the meantime (and in other cases) I guess diverting stderr in the test code is fine. (I wouldn't want to ignore stderr in all cases, even where you're not expecting any output on stderr, since that might actually indicate an error.)

[snip]  It should work.  test-lib.sh sets up $PATH to have 'git' binary
(just compiled git binary) in it...

Since you're accessing http://localhost/ URLs, the web server's PATH is in effect, which doesn't get overridden by the tests. But anyways, using an environment variable (see my other email) will move the responsibility for this to the developer running the tests.

I have changed t/t9503-gitweb-Mechanize.sh...
-our \$GIT = "git";
+our \$GIT = "$safe_pwd/../../git";

For t9503 this'll go away if the GITWEB_TEST_BASE_URL thing is implemented. For t9500 (which contains $GIT = "git" as well), it should be fine as is since test-lib.sh sets PATH and thus gitweb picks up the right binary.
