You meant "can be specified", I think.

If any of the command between "cd short-hand" and "cd .." failed, after correcting the broken &&-chain, the next test will end up running in short-hand directory, which it is not expecting. A canonical way to avoid this problem is to replace the above with: ... git worktree add short-hand - && ( cd short-hand && ... test "$branch" = refs/heads/newbranch ) In this particular case, alternatively, you could also do something like this: git worktree add short-hand - && echo refs/heads/newbranch >expect && git -C short-hand rev-parse --symbolic-full-name HEAD >actual && test_cmp expect actual and it would be sufficient. It is not immediately obvious to me why you have two copies of the same test in your patch to see where HEAD points at. If the reason is because you suspect that "git -C $there" form may give subtly different behaviour and wanted to test both, then you could do something like this: git worktree add short-hand - && echo refs/heads/newbranch >expect && git -C short-hand rev-parse --symbolic-full-name HEAD >actual && test_cmp expect actual && (cd short-hand && git rev-parse --symbolic-full-name HEAD) >actual && test_cmp expect actual but I do not think that is necessary. This test is not about "does rev-parse --symbolic-full-name work correctly with 'git -C $there'?"
