In any case, I agree that having a clean, understandable code as a
starting point is better than having a more "portable" but trickier
one right away.  If it will need converting to POSIX, that can be
done as a follow up (and as we've both noticed, this would be the
only point where such a conversion might be problematic -- the other
changes would be trivial, almost automatic).

As things are the options are:

1) Remove this code and move to POSIX sh. People looking for reference
might scratch their heads as to why 'git push' is not showing the
update.
2) Keep this code and remain in bash.

Until we have a:

3) Replace this code with a clean POSIX sh alternative

I would rather vote for 2)

I'm fine with bash. The critical thing is that it not break people's
"make test" if they do not have bash (or do not have bash as /bin/bash).
