Re: [StGit PATCH] Test that we can add a new file to a non-topmost patch with refresh -p

OK, the problem is that to pop the patches on top of the one we are to refresh, we call pop_patch(keep = True). This in turn calls git.switch(keep = True), which resets the index (but is careful to not touch the worktree).

I'm not quite sure how to fix this in a simple way -- the code simply assumes that the index contains nothing of interest. And since I already have a rewrite of refresh that handles this and a handful of other cases that the old code does not, I'm kind of disinclined to undertake a larger restructuring of the code.

Catalin, what do you think?
