Version

5.7.2 and later

Description

Since #4941, all sh scripts are intentionally rewritten as Bash scripts, with "#!/bin/bash" shebang. As filed in #7244, most *BSD distributions do not place their prebuilt Bash in /bin/bash but in /usr/local/bin/bash (or /usr/pkg/bin/bash).

If the shebang is #!/usr/bin/env bash, the users on the systems with Bash (as far as PATH is configured appropriately) can execute the scripts without rewriting the shebang.

mpsuzuki@893b498 (for Bash) and mpsuzuki@583c70e (for Perl) are such changesets.

Such changesets are unacceptable? I guess such modification might have been discussed once, but I could not find.
