OK. I'll amend to add a few lines of note to the commit log and
then merge it down.

If you want to create, do not use "touch" that gives readers a false
and confusing impression that you care about the timestamp of the
thing being updated. If you say ">./$file", you can get an error from
the shell just fine, I think.

Likewise, as that would become ">./".

GNUism already pointed out, I think.

Issues meaning that the test wants to see how a pathname with ^I in
it works but create_test_file step would fail? Your above construct
covers that with the if/then/else test_expect_failure/fi just fine,
I think.
