Some Unix systems do not have sh at the specified location: `/bin/sh`. Using `/usr/bin/env sh` instead uses the `sh` executable from users `$PATH`, which should be more portable. See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shebang_(Unix)#Portability

Some Unix systems do not have sh at the specified location:
/bin/sh. In my instance, I'm using NixOS, which also lacks it.Using
/usr/bin/env shinstead uses theshexecutable from users$PATH, which should be more portable and also it makes it possible for the user to choose which 'sh' to use.See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shebang_(Unix)#Portability
