Subject: git-gui: prefer shell at "/bin/sh" with Meson
X-Git-Tag: v2.54.0-rc0~53^2~1^2~2
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=8334d5e459de0386cf7b5b87cec136d62c14c3ad;p=thirdparty%2Fgit.git

git-gui: prefer shell at "/bin/sh" with Meson

Meson detects the path of the target shell via `find_program("sh")`,
which essentially does a lookup via `PATH`. We know that almost all
systems have "/bin/sh" available though, which makes it the superior
choice as a default value.

Adapt `find_program()` to prefer "/bin/sh" over any other "sh"
executable.
