The Git CodingGuidelines prefer the $(...) construct for command
substitution instead of using the backquotes `...`.

For patches 1 to 14:

(reviewed the patches in my mailer, and the "diff --color-words=." after
applying in addition)

Thanks both.

Ideally, we should keep these scripted Porcelain implementations in
the contrib/examples/ hierarchy up-to-date to still work with the
recent versions of Git as they used to.  We do not need to backport
new features, but they should follow the best-current-practice of
the use of plumbing features and scripting in general, and this
update is probably a step in the right direction.  It is somewhat
sad that these are not tested but I do not think of an unintrusive
easy way to keep them also in the test suite.

Will queue.
