OK.

This does not look like updating formatting to the current standard,
or improving readability, though.

These are not wrong per-se, but if we are updating, I wonder if we
want to get rid of statements outside the test_expect_success block,
not just the formatting of individual test_expect_success tests.
Looking at an iteration of the loop, the executable statements from
here ...
rm -f .git/index
echo frotz >infocom
git update-index --add infocom
echo xyzzy >infocom
files=$(git diff-files -p)
... to here is what we would make part of one test, namely ...
test_expect_success \
"Racy GIT trial #$trial part A" \
'test "" != "$files"'
... this one. Then
sleep 1
is a cricial delay to have before the next test, which we may want
to have outside to make it clear what is going on to readers. But
the following parts ...
echo xyzzy >cornerstone
git update-index --add cornerstone
files=$(git diff-files -p)
... up to here, we would make part of the next test ...
test_expect_success \
"Racy GIT trial #$trial part B" \
'test "" != "$files"'
... in the modern style.
So, we may want to do it more like this, perhaps?
test_expect_success "Racy GIT trial #$trial part A" '
rm -f .git/index &&
echo frotz >infocom &&
git update-index --add infocom &&
echo xyzzy >infocom &&
files=$(git diff-files -p) &&
test "" != "$files"
'
sleep 1
test_expect_success "Racy GIT trial #$trial part B" '
echo xyzzy >cornerstone &&
git update-index --add cornerstone &&
files=$(git diff-files -p) &&
test "" != "$files"
'
An added benefit of the more modern style to place as much as
possible to &&-chain in test_expect_success block is that we would
catch breakage in "git update-index" and other things used to set-up
the test as well. With the original loop, breakages in things
outside the test_expect_success blocks will go unchecked.
