Sorry, you lost me.  I was talking about what happens in the new
test you added to t6302 not failing as designed, and there shouldn't
be "I've pushed but you haven't pushed to GitHub" distinction.  The
test is running in a brand-new repository just created for the sole
purpose of running the test after all.

So in short, the test script added to t6302 in the v4 patch was not
testing what it was supposed to be testing, as it didn't have the
configuration items related to %(push) atom necessary to trigger the
error?  

That I can believe.  I was starting to worry if there was something
more subtle going on, but I am glad that it was only an uncooked
patch submitted without checking.

No, I didn't.  I just tried to make sure the new test was truly
checking the existing breakage by partially reverting the code fix,
and saw that the new test did not fail.

Thanks.
