t7450-dot-gitfoo-files.sh seems clear to me.

I see --- the point here is that because it's using e.g. "git clone
--recurse-submodules", we want it to be later than the other clone
tests?
I think I'd like us to move away from having the numbers at all some
day (since collisions are very common), but there's probably not much
to discuss there until one of us comes up with a proposal that still
makes it easy to do things like "skip all git-svn tests". :)
