A few more nits, that probably don't belong in the same patch: - the code in subshells would be more readable if indented - existing <<-EOF here blocks should \quote the EOF - the resulting history would be more realistic if it uses test_tick before running "git commit". Or perhaps this can use the test_commit helper to handle that - should use test_must_fail in preference to ! git - might be simpler if http tests go in a different file Thanks, Jonathan
