Re: [PATCH] t3000 (ls-files -o): modernize style

I should clarify.  I wrote this patch as preparation to add some new
tests to the same script.  The new tests are not cooked yet, so I just
sent the trivial part; there certainly is no urgent reason to apply it
soon (though no reason I see not to apply it either).

A better explanation for the rationale would be "follow the modern
style to make the script more readable and set a good example for
future tests".

BTW. do all sane shells that can be used to run test suite support
'<<-' here-doc redirection operators?  Is it in POSIX?

Yes[1] and yes[2].

Thanks for looking it over.
