Oh, and one other thing I forgot to mention about the patch. It
currently talks about things along the lines of "git-style tests" and
"cworth-style tests".

You and I might understand perfectly well what that means now, but we
need the test suite to be independently comprehensible. (I'd like to be
able to understand it myself when I look at it again in the future,
having forgotten the current history.)

So if you could describe these instead as something like "tests using
test_expect_success" vs. "tests using
test_begin_subtest/test_expect_equal" or something like that, that would
be great.

Thanks again,

-Carl
