I do not think it matters too much, as it will become correct at the
end anyway, but ...

... the way I read the introductory paragraph in the proposed log
message is that the point of adding a protection here (done in order
to work around a transient failure caused by having to artificially
split this topic into four patches) is to avoid an inevitable
failure due to some parts of tests adjusted for 'main' while other
parts still expect 'master'. Until files in t/5411/* gets adjusted
for 'main', nothing is expected to pass whether the default branch
is 'master' or 'main'. Or with only 1/4 applied, is this test
expected to pass if GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME is set to
'main' (i.e. PREPARE_FOR_MAIN_BRANCH prerequisite is satisfied)?
IOW, I do not see the point in _conditionally_ skipping the rest of
the test in this step. I'd however understand it if we always skip
the rest in 1/4 and then enable the rest only when testing with
'main' as the default in 4/4, when all the necessary pieces in
t/t5411 have been converted.
The "straight-forward search-and-replace" part looks obviously good,
of course.
Thanks.
