Good.

I think moving 'git show' out of the pipeline is a good step here, but I
don't think we need to store $count in a separate variable. It would be
fine to write:

    git show >output &&
    test 1 = $(grep ONCE output | wc -l)

or even to replace the subshell with 'grep -c' instead of piping 'grep'
to 'wc -l'.

Same notes from above here and the next two tests (elided from my
response) below.

Is there a more descriptive name for the output here than just 'actual'?

Thanks,
