Junio C HamanoThree tests before the test updated here is a test that is called 'pull in shallow repo with missing merge base' and does this:
test_must_fail git pull --depth 4 .. A
While attempting to create a merge after fetching necessary objects, the current implementation happens to create a throw-away object to represent a conflicted merge result before failing. This object is not connected to any of the refs in the result (i.e. prunable).
The test touched by this patch counts the number of loose objects and depends on the presence of this prunable garbage. Once we improve the implementation of "merge" not to leave such a throw-away object in the object database, this will start failing.
Remove the throw-away object, if any, before counting in order to future-proof this test.
