[Octave-patch-tracker] [patch #7870] Allow the use of a macro, specifically SHELL_PATH, to provide where sh can be found.

[Mike Miller]

Follow-up Comment #1, patch #7870 (project octave):

I commented on your other patch, so I figured I might as well briefly here
too. How do you pass this variable in to the build? This seems like a
candidate for an addition to configure, which can write it into config.h.

I did a quick search and found that git's configure script defines SHELL_PATH
and has a --with-shell= option, where the default is of course /bin/sh. I'm
not trying to make this harder, but adding this to configure seems like the
right way to go.
