Re: [PATCH] t0300-credentials: Word around a solaris /bin/sh bug

From: Ben Walton <hidden>

Excerpts from Jeff King's message of Fri Feb 03 07:06:57 -0500 2012:
When I have hard-coded "#!/bin/sh", my thinking is usually "this is
less cumbersome to type and to read, and this script-let is so small
that even Solaris will get it right".
This is why I opted to stick with /bin/sh and just avoid the damage.
Overall, using a sane shell is a better option...It is harder to read
though.

Thanks
-Ben
