tests: prevent Git system and global configuration from loading

This reduces differences between different testing environments. Something similar is already done for Mercurial (in the lines directly above this change).

The parent changeset has originally been added to support user.useconfigonly. With this changeset, the original motivation for it becomes obsolete. However, it is still necessary to set the committer name via a environment variable, at least on my machine.

Looking at the git man page, I wonder why not using /dev/null?

The path /dev/null is specific to some operating systems. While these might be all systems the tests can factually be run on, it didn’t seem quite right to me. I agree that passing an empty string is a bit too implicit. I think that both ways aren’t perfect. I don’t have a strong opinion really, so feel free to commit it any way you like more.

(I don't like how Mercurial put different semantics to undefined and empty environment variables. That used to cause problems on some almost-extinct unices. But it seems to work...)

          testenv.update(environ)
          p = Popen(command, shell=True, stdout=PIPE, stderr=PIPE, cwd=self.cwd, env=testenv)
          stdout, stderr = p.communicate()
