b7ce24d095 (Turn `git serve` into a test helper, 2019-04-18) demoted git

anymore.

Good catch. This shows a weakness in my detection script: I had a stale
git-serve sitting around from building old versions of Git. :)

I repeated the script in a "clean" directory that was a fresh clone +
make, and diffed the results. git-serve was the only interesting
difference I saw. So this is probably the last of the low-hanging fruit.

Thanks, all.  

Just for simplicity, these two are also queued on the same "random
cleanup" topic branch started with Felipe's four trivial clean-up
patches.
