These tests will break rather badly at Git 3.0 boundary, because the default branch name will be 'main' beyond that point.

It can be visible in
    https://github.com/git/git/actions/runs/23667958553/job/68954593675
i.e., linux-breaking-changes job.

I think we can squash in a futureproof fix like this one to the patch.
