Do not use SHELL_PATH from build system in prepare_shell_cmd on Windows
The recent change to use SHELL_PATH instead of "sh" to spawn shell commands is not suited for Windows: - The default setting, "/bin/sh", does not work when git has to run the shell because it is a POSIX style path, but not a proper Windows style path. - If it worked, it would hard-code a position in the files system where the shell is expected, making git (more precisely, the POSIX toolset that is needed alongside git) non-relocatable. But we cannot sacrifice relocatability on Windows. - Apart from that, even though the Makefile leaves SHELL_PATH set to "/bin/sh" for the Windows builds, the build system passes a mangled path to the compiler, and something like "D:/Src/msysgit/bin/sh" is used, which is doubly bad because it points to where /bin/sh resolves to on the system where git was built. - Finally, the system's CreateProcess() function that is used under mingw.c's hood does not work with forward slashes and cannot find the shell. Undo the earlier change on Windows. Signed-off-by: Johannes Sixt <j6t@kdbg.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
