It might be POSIX, but there are shells that do not like the
expression 'export VAR=VAL'.  To be on the safe side, rewrite them
into 'VAR=VAL' and 'export VAR'.

Why leave test scripts behind?

Good keyword: how about starting the basic tests by testing for shell
features that are known and accepted to be used in git?

That way, we get direct feedback when feature assumptions are
problematic with some shells.
