Re: [PATCH] Set TAR in t/Makefile and in t4116-apply-reverse.sh

[Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>]

Actually, 455a7f3 (More portability., 2005-09-30) introduced $TAR and it
is also used in t5000.  cb34882 (fix t5000-tar-tree.sh when $TAR isn't
set, 2005-11-08) did the same fix you are adding, but I think both of
these fixes are in a wrong place.

I think we should do this instead.  That's how SHELL_PATH is passed around
from build to all the test scripts already.
