Same here.

Perhaps a demo helps.  The patch at the bottom adds an echo command to
the test helper.  This way we can intersperse the progress lines with
indications when items are processed.

So here's the pattern for calling display_progress at the top of the
loop and again with the number of items after the loop:

  $ (
    for i in 0 1 2
    do
      echo progress $i
      echo update
      echo echo WORK
    done
    echo progress 3
  ) | ./t/helper/test-tool progress --total 3 test 2>&1 | tr '\r' '\n'

  test:   0% (0/3)
  WORK
  test:  33% (1/3)
  WORK
  test:  66% (2/3)
  WORK
  test: 100% (3/3)
  test: 100% (3/3), done.

The progress lines reflect the number of finished items at all times.

Here's the pattern for display_progress at the bottom of the loop:


  $ (
    for i in 0 1 2
    do
      echo echo WORK
      echo progress $(( $i + 1 ))
      echo update
    done
  ) | ./t/helper/test-tool progress --total 3 test 2>&1 | tr '\r' '\n'

  WORK
  test:  33% (1/3)
  WORK
  test:  66% (2/3)
  WORK
  test: 100% (3/3)
  test: 100% (3/3), done.

Same here, the progress line shows the correct number of finished items.

Here's the pattern suggested in your patch:

  $ (
    for i in 0 1 2
    do
      echo progress $(( $i + 1 ))
      echo update
      echo echo WORK
    done
  ) | ./t/helper/test-tool progress --total 3 test 2>&1 | tr '\r' '\n'

  test:  33% (1/3)
  WORK
  test:  66% (2/3)
  WORK
  test: 100% (3/3)
  WORK
  test: 100% (3/3), done.

It reports one item too many in the intermediate progress lines and
is correct only at the very end.
