> Do we want to have a stated dependency on a particular shell? Most of our scripts explicitly use bash, but some use sh. Most scripts invoke {{#\!/usr/bin/env bash}} but some do {{#\!/bin/bash}} or other crazy things.
> I don't have a particular preference which way we go, but I'd like to see us standardize one way or the other.
> If we use {{/bin/sh}}, then we can run everything through the [checkbashisms|https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DashAsBinSh#I_am_a_developer._How_can_I_avoid_this_problem_in_future.3F] script (also available for other distros)
> If we go the other way, and switch everything to bash, then we can run them through {{ksh -n}} for deprecation warnings. I know that's a different shell, but they're still moderately useful.
