From: Benoit Person <redacted> For now, bin-wrappers (based on wrap-for-bin.sh) redefine some environnement variables (like $GITPERLLIB). If we want to chain to those scripts and define one of those variables before, our changes will be overwritten. This patch simply makes the bin-wrappers prepend their modifications rather than redefine the vars.
Your commit message makes it sound like GITPERLLIB is only one example of a general class of environment variables fixed by the patch, but in fact the patch address *only* GITPERLLIB. Please make the commit message better match the patch. And maybe you could mention for posterity whether you have seen other variables that will need fixing vs. you did an audit and think that GITPERLLIB is the only problematic one vs. you haven't looked for other similar problems at all. This could save some time for the next person with a similar itch and/or maybe inspire somebody to do an audit. Thanks, Michael
