Hm. If the implementation of test_expect_success uses the variable, too, its
value is lost when the test snippet runs. Fortunately, it does not.

You can make this code a bit more robust by using double-quotes around the
test code so that $i is expanded before test_expect_success is evaluated.

I think that the current format is preferred over the one you suggest.
Here[1] Junio
has given a descriptive explanation.

Junio has a point there, of course.

In this light, I suggest that you use a more verbose variable name.
