test-rebase-interruptions: stabilize for Windows External hooks end up launching cmd.exe, which knows nothing about $VAR syntax. For some reason, I thought that Mercurial would substitute in the value, in order to paper over the platform difference. But I can't find that in the documentation, and there's at least one other use of this pattern [1]. [1] https://www.mercurial-scm.org/repo/hg/file/tip/tests/test-histedit-fold.t#l477

If you just want a checklist to follow, you can go straight to

If you can't run the entire testsuite for some reason (it can be
difficult on Windows), please at least run `contrib/check-code.py` on
any files you've modified and run `python contrib/check-commit` on any
commits you've made (for example, `python contrib/check-commit
273ce12ad8f1` will report some style violations on a very old commit).
