Compliment the existing GIT_TEST_INSTALLED variable added in [1] with one that allows for testing a git built in a directory that's not "../".
Instead of "test this installed git" ("GIT_TEST_INSTALLED"), this new "GIT_TEST_BUILD_DIR" is a "test this built directory over there". E.g. this will pass all tests:
git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/git/git.git git1 cp -R git1 git2 make -C git1 [apply this change to git2] (cd git2 && GIT_TEST_BUILD_DIR="$PWD/../git1" make -C t prove)
