[PATCH v2 0/6] Run test suite without dashed commands in PATH

[Matthew Ogilvie <mmogilvi_git@miniinfo.net>]

This patch series runs the test suite without the dashed commands
in the PATH.

Changes since version 1:

  - Added patch 3 that documents the pre-existing GIT_TEST_INSTALLED
    feature.

  - Rename what used to be "test-bin" directory as "bin-wrappers", to
    more clearly describe what it is.

  - Split off patch 6 (INSTALL documention) from patch
    4 (was patch 3), describing how the bin-wrappers directory
    is a very convenient way to manually test an uninstalled build.
    I also reworded it a bit to mention the downsides.  Junio
    doesn't seem to agree this is useful; splitting it off makes
    it easy to leave it out.

Not changed:

There was some discussion about not building the bin-wrappers directory
unless you are actually running tests.  But I don't really think it
is worth the additional complexity to manage this.  The "make all"
target is already building several full-up binaries to support the
test suite (not just the small sed-ed scripts that this adds).  And any
such solution would need to deal with parallel execution locking
issues, as well as additional uglyness (either duplicating a list
of bindir executables within test-lib.sh itself, or calling into a
parent directory makefile that might already be running in
a grandparent process).
