Test 'credential config with partial URLs' in t0300-credentials.sh
contains three "git credential fill" invocations. For two of the
invocations, the test asserts presence or absence of string "yep" in the
standard output. For the third test it checks for an error message in
standard error.
Don't redirect standard output of "git credential" to file "stdout" in
t0300-credentials.sh to avoid creating an unnecessary file when only
standard error is checked.

This goes for these changes in this series general: You're correct that
this is useless now, but I don't think it follows that we should be
removing the "redundant" code in all cases, rather than fixing the test
to actually check these.
I'll reply to these on one-by-one. See also this review of a patch in part 1
of this series from Junio C Hamano:
https://lore.kernel.org/git/xmqqsfe8s56p.fsf@gitster.g/
E.g. this will also make this test pass:

Does that make sense? No idea, I don't know the credential system well.
But isn't it worth testing that when we ask for this that we're getting
some known output along with the warning?
Current version from branch "master" with more context lines:

Here "! grep yep stdout" ensures that git-credential-yep isn't launched for the
three kinds of partial URLs. Otherwise, the actual content of "stdout" is
ignored. It comes from script "askpass" (see bottom of file "t/lib-credential.sh").
Absence or presence of "yep" is a proxy for whether or not partial URL got
matched or not, and that is what's important for this test. Adding assertions
for output of "askpass" here would only obscure this fact, I think.
There are other tests in t030[0-3] that do check standard output for what
the helper script "askpass" prints out -- those tests validate that the
"git credentials" fallbacks to asking for credentials in the terminal in
various situations. This is done via functions helper_test and
helper_test_timeout from "t/lib-credential.sh".

git -c credential.$partial.helper=yep \

test_i18ngrep "skipping credential lookup for key" stderr
Here, the important part is that "git credential" reacts to invalid key being
used: "credential.with%0anewline.username=uh-oh", and similarly, I think that
adding assertions about "stdout" might not be a good idea.

Perhaps Johannes Schindelin, author of commit 9a121b0d22 ("credential: handle
`credential.<partial-URL>.<key>` again", 2020-04-24), could chime in.
