It's not clear to me what "both aren't covered correctly by this flag"
actually means here. If it means that pruning of deleted references
and backfilling of tags don't work correctly when --atomic is used,
then it could be stated more clearly. Otherwise this seems to just be
repeating the first part of the sentence.

Maybe s/missing coverage/a bug/ would make things clearer.

As this patch series is about fixing buggy parts of the behavior with
--atomic, I think it would make more sense to use test_expect_failure,
instead of test_expect_success, in this test, and to check that we
have the correct behavior, instead of checking that we have the buggy
behavior.

Of course when later in this patch series the buggy behavior is fixed,
then test_expect_failure should be replaced with test_expect_success.

The comment says that we expect to see a single reference transaction,
but the expected file we create seems to show 2 transactions. So I
think here too, we should use test_expect_failure, instead of
test_expect_success, and check that we have the correct behavior
instead of a buggy one.

Here there is no #!/bin/sh while other uses of write_script in your
patch have it. If it's not necessary, it could be removed in the other
uses.

I took a quick look at the 2 other tests after this one, and I think
test_expect_failure should be used there too, instead of
test_expect_success.
