Is this paragraph about when GIT_TEST_SANITIZE_LEAK_LOG=true _and_ GIT_TEST_PASSING_SANITIZE_LEAK=check are set? Or, when ...LEAK_LOG=true we set GIT_TEST_PASSING_SANITIZE_LEAK=check at the end? If it's the first, then I think the paragraph should lead with that. This paragraph is also a single sentence. I lose myself in it halfway through. Please break it up to add clarity. Thanks, -Stolee
