From: Mansi <mansimaanu8627@gmail.com>

Replace old-style 'test -f' path checks with the modern test_path_is_file helper in the merge_c1_to_c2_cmds block.

The helper provides clearer failure messages and is the established convention in Git's test suite.

These instances were found using:
  grep -rn "test -[efd]" t/ --include="*.sh"
