Yup, this makes perfect sense. I would have explained it a bit
differently, perhaps like
The original uses 'test -e' to ensure that the file exists, but
(1) it fails silently if the expectation is not met, and (2) we
expect the loose object file not just to exist but to be a file
(in other words, the original should have been 'test -f' in the
first place).
Use test_path_is_file to improve on both points.
or something, but the proposed commit log message is sufficiently
readable.
Will queue.
Thanks.
