How about applying directly on 'master' then?

The inconsistencies strikes me a bit.

Perhaps update to something like this?

	valid_ref_normalized () {
		if test $# = 3
                then
			prereq=$1
                        shift
		fi
                test_expect_success $prereq "ref name '$1' simplifies to '$2'"
		...
	}
