NAK.

This script only runs in bash.  bash supports [...].  The
prevailing convention in the script is to use [...].  Only
4 tests inside of __git_ps1 use "test", the rest of the code
is using [...].

I would agree to a test->[...] conversion patch as its fairly small,
but not this one.  Too large, too much code churn, no benefit.
