Too late. I already did the work.

Thanks, I will try to find some time to test this next week.

The problem for now is that when I time /share/msysGit/run-tests.sh, there is hardly any gain from your patches:

Old:

real 18m1.031s user 6m17.861s sys 19m25.257s

New:

real 17m54.500s user 6m12.319s sys 19m28.567s
