I gave another look and they all looked fine.  Except the title of
one step that said

    t7004: test Description and test body seperated with backslash

was a "Huh?  what does it even mean?".

    t7004: begin the test body on the same line as test_expect_success

or something?  I dunno.

;-)

Another one that I noticed is that we have quite a lot of

	cat >expect <<-EOF &&
	v1.1.3
	v2.0
	v3.0
	EOF

that can be shortend to

	test_write_lines >expect v1.1.3 v2.0 v3.0 &&

To use without extra quoting, test_write_lines is more limited, but
the majority of here-doc used for expect files in this test are
enumeration of tag names that we can write without any extra frills,
and test_write_lines may be a very good fit for these use cases.

Thanks.
