[ANNOUNCE] Sharness - Test library derived from Git

Hi,

I've been wanting to announce Sharness [1] on this list for quite some time now, but never managed to do so. With the release of version 0.2.4, I think it's about time to change that.

Sharness is a shell-based test harness library. It was derived from the Git project and is basically a generalized and stripped-down version of t/test-lib.sh (I basically removed all things specific to Git). So when you know how to write tests for Git, it should be very familiar.

I've been using Sharness to test my command-line applications [2] for over a year now. It's especially useful when you're doing continuous integration with a service like Travis CI [3].

Development of Sharness takes place at GitHub [4]. If you're interested, there might be some things I could contribute back to Git, e.g. the API documentation [5] I wrote in TomDoc format.

Looking forward to your feedback.
