OK.

You meant "can be specified", I think.  Fixing it would make the
line a bit too long, so fold it around the word "synonymous".

Just an observation, but the error message we would see here might
be interesting.

Broken &&-chain.

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'?"

Thanks.
