I've posted some commits for porting git to Plan 9.

This pull request is thing that cut off building scripts from #305 and is
re-constructed that.

I expect this don't change any artifacts.

lufia (4):
  Use $(SHELL_PATH) instead of sh in Makefile.
  Define TAR_CF and TAR_XF variables in Makefile
  Fit to Plan 9's ANSI/POSIX compatibility layer
  Use $(LD) instead of $(CC) for linking the object files

I took a look at this and left some comments.  I expect you're going to
have your work cut out for you in the test suite due to the lack of
good, modern POSIX support.

I regret to report that I looked at the source code of the ANSI/POSIX
environment from the Berkeley release and found that it's mostly shell
scripts (well, rc scripts) and has all of the functionality one would
expect from that.  I suspect that this will not make the port any
easier.
