Not sure if I can > fix that myself though. I do not see a need for rev-parse to pay attention to GIT_NAMESPACE at all, though. The destination that accepts the push with the enviornment variable, i.e. your ../bare repository after this: + git commit -m "commit two" + GIT_NAMESPACE=new_namespace git push ../bare master must be saving the result somewhere in ../bare/, and that is what you want to check (and also no refs are affected outside that hierarchy). So perhaps along the lines of echo $(git rev-parse master) commit \ refs/namespaces/new_namespace/refs/heads/master >expect && git -C ../bare for-each-ref refs/namespaces/ >actual && test_cmp expect actual or something? You would want to also check that other refs are not molested, so ( echo $(git rev-parse master^) commit \ refs/heads/master && echo $(git rev-parse master) commit \ refs/namespaces/new_namespace/refs/heads/master ) >expect && git -C ../bare for-each-ref >actual && test_cmp expect actual might be a more appropriate test.
