Hello!

"t5400-send-pack.sh --verbose" stops waiting for user input. It happens because "git log" uses less for output now. To prevent this, PAGER should be set to cat.

Good catch, thanks.

I did not notice this before, because I always work in Emacs compilation buffer, setting PAGER to cat and EDITOR to emacsclient.
