Using a subshell makes for less noisy code: git clone "$D" remote-refs && ( cd remote-refs && git rev-parse remotes/origin/master >old && git update-ref refs/remotes/origin/master master~1 && git rev-parse remotes/origin/master >new && git fetch --no-update-remote-refs origin && git rev-parse remotes/origin/master >actual && test_cmp new actual && git fetch origin && git rev-parse remotes/origin/master >actual && test_cmp old actual ) > +test_expect_success 'fetch --no-update-remote-refs --prune with refspec' ' > + git -C remote-refs update-ref refs/remotes/origin/foo/otherbranch master && > + git -C remote-refs update-ref refs/hidden/foo/otherbranch master && > + git -C remote-refs fetch --prune --no-update-remote-refs origin +refs/heads/*:refs/hidden/* && > + git -C remote-refs rev-parse remotes/origin/foo/otherbranch && > + test_must_fail git -C remote-refs rev-parse refs/hidden/foo/otherbranch && > + git -C remote-refs fetch --prune --no-update-remote-refs origin && > + test_must_fail git -C remote-refs rev-parse remotes/origin/foo/otherbranch > +' Ditto.
