We do already build the Git tools when building the test target (as opposed to just libgit.a when building the cgit binary), but I can't remember why we do this... It's probably simplest just to further tweak $PATH in tests/setup.sh so it also prepends "$(pwd)/../../git/bin-wrappers". That should cause us to use the Git tools from the submodule without needing to do anything else. > In either case, I wouldn't consider the test case a hard dependency, > and so I'm okay with removing git from the dep list.
