Makes sense. FWIW, I don't see the flakyness with this.

For reference for Kevin, in case you consider testing, e.g., git tag,
the main reason I referred to the test I posted as "hacky", was that I
just inserted it at a more-or-less random place in t7006. So it had to
play with `git reset` to avoid upsetting the later tests. It could
obviously go to the end instead, but I was too lazy to move it and
define a pager.
