Sorry, I do not quite get this.

If you apply the patch on top of the said commit before that commit, the new test does not pass.

But if you apply the patch on top of the said commit, the new test still does not pass.

So I am having hard time guessing what you meant by "regression test". It is not "a66e77 broke something that ought to work, and this shows the breakage". It is not "a66e77 fixed something and this shows the previous breakage that got fixed."

It may be because the test is depending on ShortName not to be downcased incorrectly, which was to be fixed by a later commit. But after applying this on top of jc/mailmap-case-insensitivity topic, the test does not pass (and reverting a66e77 does not seem to affect the result, either).
