Re: [PATCH 1/2] t5410: use longer path for sample script

t5410 creates a sample script "alternate-refs", and sets
core.alternateRefsCommand to just "alternate-refs". That
shouldn't work, as "." is not in our $PATH, and so we should
not find it.

However, due to a bug in run-command.c, we sometimes find it
anyway! Even more confusing, this bug is only in the
fork-based version of run-command. So the test passes on
Linux (etc), but fails on Windows.

In preparation for fixing the run-command bug, let's use a
more complete path here.

Thank you for the fix! I can confirm that the patch works, and the commit
message is stellar, as per usual for your contributions.

BTW since this breaks every single one of our Continuous Builds on
Windows, I would be very much in favor of fast-tracking this to `master`.

Thanks,
Dscho

I should note to the public that this one, and the companion patch
2/2, owe greatly to you and Peff's efforts.

Thanks, both.
