The step might have started out to do so, but many of them do not seem to anymore, perhaps because you allowed the scope of the step to drift and the focus to be lost while developing more? > test_expect_success 'symbolic-ref refuses bare sha1' ' > - test_must_fail git symbolic-ref HEAD $(git rev-parse HEAD) > + rev=$(git rev-parse HEAD) && > + test_must_fail git symbolic-ref HEAD "$rev" This is not a test_cmp_cmd user.

I guess only half of the tests updated are test_cmp_cmd users, so this step was about half as big when it was originally written?
