Good point. I have gc.auto=0 in my config, but the tests use their own, empty config. A trace shows that "git gc --auto --no-quiet" is started. The following patch turns that off and allows the tests to succeed. Not doing maintenance in parallel to a performance test is a good idea anyway, but I still don't understand why it would empty the reflog -- that seems excessive, dangerous even. One of the maintenance commands from the trace is "git reflog expire --all". If I put that in before the "checkout -" test (on top of the patch below) then the reflog is emptied again and the test fails.
