Hi,

How can the changed result of one test suddenly make another test redundant?
The two are testing different things.

No, 'git update-ref' correctly reverts the earlier push, so we can push again
and 'git update-server-info' is therefore necessary for the test to work
independently of its predecessors result.
I said "redundant" because in the first push, we've already 1) updated
/refs/heads/master (which is what the 'git update-ref' here does) and
2) updated /info/refs (which is what the 'git update-server-info' does
and 3) pushed changes. To me, the "unpacked refs" test reads as a
trivial test of http-push's ability to update /refs/heads/master and
/info/refs (something we've already done in the first "packed refs"
test), rather than its pushing per se. Is it your intention to keep
the "unpacked refs" test due to the former?
