Firstly, do not toppost when replying to a message at Git. Use inline comments. While the guidelines talked about keeping the changes small, which is valid. But, that file has about four instances of the same "test -f", that is not a big change. You can change all of those instances.

The main idea of Microproject is to get you familiar with the Git workflow.
