Yeah, that reset is a hack. Looking through the tests that come after,
I don't think the extra commit is silently hurting any of them, so it's
really just the stupid hard-coded rev-list one.

I looked at rewriting it into something like "git log --format=%s", but
I couldn't come up with a commit message that reasonably argued "this
tests the same thing as the original". Because I haven't really figured
out what the original is supposed to be testing. That we made commits?
That we made a particular sequence of commits with those messages? With
particular trees?

I feel like each test should be responsible for figuring out whether it
committed or not (and AFAICT, they do). So I would be tempted to just
delete the rev-list test.
