The test introduced in the commit at the tip: 'push update refs'. More precisely:

---- 8< ---- D:\Src\mingw-git\t>sh t5801-remote-helpers.sh ok 1 - setup repository ok 2 - cloning from local repo ok 3 - create new commit on remote ok 4 - pulling from local repo ok 5 - pushing to local repo ok 6 - fetch new branch ok 7 - fetch multiple branches ok 8 - push when remote has extra refs ok 9 - push new branch by name not ok 10 - push new branch with old:new refspec # TODO known breakage ok 11 - cloning without refspec ok 12 - pulling without refspecs ok 13 - pushing without refspecs ok 14 - pulling without marks not ok 15 - pushing without marks # TODO known breakage ok 16 - push all with existing object ok 17 - push ref with existing object not ok 18 - push update refs # # (cd local && # git checkout -b update master && # echo update >>file && # git commit -a -m update && # git push origin update # git rev-parse --verify remotes/origin/update >expect && # git rev-parse --verify testgit/origin/heads/update >actual && # test_cmp expect actual # ) # ok 19 - proper failure checks for fetching ok 20 - proper failure checks for pushing ok 21 - push messages ok 22 - push signed tag ok 23 - push signed tag with signed-tags capability # still have 2 known breakage(s) # failed 1 among remaining 21 test(s) 1..23 ---- 8< ----

The verbose failure is:
---- 8< ----
expecting success:
        (cd local &&
        git checkout -b update master &&
        echo update >>file &&
        git commit -a -m update &&
        git push origin update
        git rev-parse --verify remotes/origin/update >expect &&
        git rev-parse --verify testgit/origin/heads/update >actual &&
        test_cmp expect actual
        )
