Presumably you're talking about the invocation of chainlint.pl?
Considering that that's quite an unimportant part of `make test` for
those just running the test suite (as opposed to those authoring new
tests), the simplest workaround is to disable chainlint when you run
the tests by setting environment variable GIT_TEST_EXT_CHAIN_LINT to
0.
