I could reroll with another variable name on top of 85705cfb?

I agree. How about `currentdir`, `testdir` or `testtop` instead?
That is slightly longer than `D`, `here` or `top`, but is slightly more
informative. $TRASH would also work for me.

Talking about time bombs: I see there are many tests in single files
(e.g. 7412 has ~80 tests IIRC and adding a test in there I often spend
more time figuring out the current state of the testing directory rather than
writing the test.

So I'd rather see more testing files with fewer tests rather than a few
files with all the tests for one topic. (e.g. these tests could have gone
into the clone tests, or the basic submodule tests, but instead I chose
a new file to test this.)

I was not keen on being ultrashort, rather I was toying around
to drop the patch introducing the --no-local option.
