The earlier code meant to attempt to strip everything except the test
number, but only stripped the part starting with the last dash.

However, there is no reason why we should not use the whole basename.

Just to clarify: it fixes the issue that these two tests share the same 
file in test-results/: t5521-pull-options.sh  t5521-pull-symlink.sh

As a consequence, one's results overwrite the other one's.

Are you saying that your "fix" will break things if we did not have
renames from j6t?

What bug/problem/issue does this patch fix?

I never look into test-results/ subdirectory myself (I'll let the
summarizing code do that for me) and the full names never bothered me.

Actually I've always thought it was a very nice touch by you to make sure
results will not be mixed up even when we have more than 10 tests in the
same category and some tests need to share their numbers, and and your
"meant to ... strip everything" above gave me "Huh?"
