Package: git
Version: 1:2.29.2-1
Severity: serious

Some of the tests fail with dash, which is the default /bin/sh in
Debian.

Example:

| bbl@debian-sid:~/git-2.29.2+next.20201030/t$ bash ./t3070-wildmatch.sh | tail 
-n 3
| # still have 40 known breakage(s)
| # passed all remaining 1850 test(s)
| 1..1890
| bbl@debian-sid:~/git-2.29.2+next.20201030/t$ dash ./t3070-wildmatch.sh | tail 
-n 3
| # still have 28 known breakage(s)
| # failed 12 among remaining 1862 test(s)
| 1..1890

I was not able to see where exactly it's broken, but the result changes
with various options, so it might be a breakage in dash itself.

The easiest solution is to just use /bin/bash always.
