James and Michael's patches add if clauses that use the

Bashism...? I dunno how portable is, but [ is an old unix alias
for test ... it certainly predates bash...
Correct. [[ ... ]] is new and spelling out test indeed is more
traditionalist than [ ... ], but for contrib/subtree/ that does not
work with anything but bash, I do not think such a rewrite has much
merit in the first place. Being consistently bash script (as
opposed to being old-style) is more appropriate for it.
Does no-one have any other comments about these patches?
