Thanks.

I'd very much prefer this "one setup, one test" folded into an existing test script, instead of wasting a new test number. Perhaps in t4014 whose title reads "various format-patch tests"?

If you have a concrete output file, there is no point moving it to "actual", especially when you are not comparing it with "expect".

Hmm, is this grep safe?

Perhaps adding something like this near the end of an existing test script might be simpler and sufficient, no?

test_expect_failure 'format patch ignores color.ui' '
	test_unconfig color.ui &&
        git format-patch --stdout -1 >expect &&
	test_config color.ui always &&
	git format-patch --stdout -1 >actual &&
        test_cmp expect actual
