Actually, I do not like this "broken_" filename prefix part. Even though I can imagine "git show -M" would do a reasonable job, marking that a fix to a pattern makes a test that used not to pass succeed by renaming a file goes against the convention of changing one line to turn the "failure" to "success" in test_expect_failure used in normal tests.

Can we use stable filename that says what is being tested instead?
