Slightly overlong lines above...

... and this one. I'll stop counting.
You commit, and then checkout, and then merge, and then amend/rewrite, etc., all of which look quite sensible.
These separate steps not being in individual test_expect_success and instead in a single one chained together with &&- makes me suspect that it would be inconvenient to tell which step is failing and to debug when things start to break, though.

Looking good otherwise. Thanks.
