Thanks for digging. I think this case, though, is that we were simply using the wrong variable ($SHELL instead of $SHELL_PATH). Your workarounds would help if somebody put zsh into $SHELL_PATH, but fundamentally that is not a sane thing to be doing, so I think we can just consider doing so user error and not bother working around it. -Peff -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
