Honestly, I don't have a strong opinion on this.  I know, though, there
are others who like to pack as much as possible into one test.

I see your point.  However, I can also accept that testing in the same
test the simple exceptions for the implicit --cover-letter with
--range-diff, or --interdiff in the other one below, makes sense.

I'm curious, a test like: 

test_expect_success "format-patch --range-diff, implicit --cover-letter" '
	test_when_finished "rm v2-000?-*" &&
	test_must_fail git format-patch --no-cover-letter
		-v2 --range-diff=topic main..unmodified

isn't it confusing?

Thanks.
