Currently the only way is to run the test once for each setting of
GIT_PERF_REPO.  The only comparisons it does so far is between
revisions/build directories.

That's just because at the time, I saw neither a clear need nor a simple
syntax that I could use.  I'd welcome suggestions, however.

My only use-case that 'run' does not handle so far would just be
mirroring the table, i.e., getting a comparison of different tests (such
as 'rebase', 'rebase -m' etc.)  from the same build tree.
