Perhaps we should remove the infamous gitweb/test/Märchen file

[...] I'd much rather see this kind of thing  tested from within  
the test suite rather than every time I do "git  status" or "git  
checkout".

I don't believe the Märchen file is actually used in any test code,  
so removing it should be fine.  If/when we actually write test code  
for gitweb, it seems to me that we might as well generate such test  
files on the fly from within the test suite, rather than having them  
in the file system permanently.

Yes, that's exactly what I intended my comment to imply. Test at test  
time, not every time I do "git status" and "git checkout" etc.

I think it is remainder (the whole gitweb/test/ directory) from the
times when gitweb was separate project, and not part of git.
