As with the first patch, I think we could use d/f conflicts to get the same effect. Perhaps something like this:

diff --git a/t/t5541-http-push-smart.sh b/t/t5541-http-push-smart.sh

I do think that the original was slightly more interesting (since we
could check that "other" still existed but was not updated), but I think
the main point of the test is that "atomic" was not pushed at all.
