Git wants to ensure that you do not read .git owned by other users.
But we fetch+build as 'build' user, and run tests as root user. Those
tests calculate git topdir using git rev-parse --show-toplevel, which
git now fails.
Setting safe.directory, seems wrong. Let's just use bash to figure
out the top dir.
We're losing the svn history (which we could probably keep if we tried
hard enough) but don't consider that worthwhile.
Note these tests are destructive, so run them only in a throwaway
environment like a chroot, container, or vm.
The tests/run.all script should be the one which launches all the tests.
