This "+" means that this paragraph should be connected to the previous
one, so it seems that you've inserted your new value in the middle of
the `url` key. You'll want to move yours to be after those two connected
paragraphs. Your diff hunk should look like this:

This is cool that you've figured out how to make our Apache tests
add these headers! Maybe we won't need that extra test helper like
I thought (unless we want to confirm the second request sends the
right information).

I think we prefer using "test" over the braces (and linebreak
before then) like this:

		if test -n "$teefile"
		then

Alternatively, you could always run "rm -f $teefile" for
simplicity.

Since I'm not sure, I'll ask the question: do we need the sub-shell
here, or could we pipe directly off of the "done"? Like this:

		while read line;
		do
			if [ -z "$line" ]; then
				exit 0
			fi
			echo "$line" >> $teefile
			echo $line
		done | git credential-store $cmd

Elegant check for both calls.
