The tests in:
t/t1306-xdg-files.sh
were failing because the git commands were using the environment
variable `XDG_CONFIG_HOME' as it was set for the user's usual
environment, rather than as set for the testing environment.
This commit provides the quickest, simplest hack to make things work;
because there is already the setting and exporting of the environment
variable `HOME' in:
t/test-lib.sh
this commit simply adds to that file the setting and exporting of
the variable `XDG_CONFIG_HOME' (based on the variable `HOME' that is
provided there).
However, the existing tests [sometimes] don't use these variables
explicitly, so the whole structure of this testing rests on the
hope that people maintain the conventions captured by the values
of these variables; another commit should fix this instability
by using these variables explicitly.
(Note: Double quotes are not needed around the value assigned
to the variable, as word splitting is not performed).
