fix(test-scripts/sh): use $0 instead of $_
User description
I stumbled accross this while working on #2 .
Fixes an error that occurs when running ./test-scripts/sh:
$ test-scripts/sh
dirname: invalid option -- 'e'
Try 'dirname --help' for more information.
test-scripts/sh: line 4: cd: null directory
After execution of line 3 set -e variable $_ gets overwritten with "set -e".
Line 4 tries to get the dirname for "set -e" and fails.

4-4: Excellent fix!The change from
$_to$0correctly resolves the bug. Using$0is the standard idiom for obtaining a script's path, whereas$_unreliably holds the last argument of the previous command (in this case, "set -e").

Summary of Changes
Hello @moormaster, I'm Gemini Code Assist[^1]! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!
This pull request resolves a critical bug in the test-scripts/sh script that prevented it from executing correctly. The issue stemmed from an unintended side effect of the set -e command, which caused the $_ variable to be overwritten, leading to an invalid directory path being passed to dirname. By switching to $0, the script now reliably identifies its own path, ensuring proper execution and resolving the dirname: invalid option and cd: null directory errors.
Highlights
-
Bug Fix: Addresses an issue in the
test-scripts/shscript that caused it to fail withdirname: invalid optionandcd: null directoryerrors. -
Script Logic Correction: Replaced the use of the
$_special variable with$0to correctly determine the script's directory, preventingdirnamefrom receiving an invalid argument afterset -eis executed.
