When evaluating a change in the interoperability area, it does not

Traditionally our interoperability testing has been to cook things in
"next" and "master" and see if anybody complains. It would be nice to
have an interoperability test suite that could hit some common hosting
sites, as well as older versions of git-core itself. I suspect
automating that would be a big pain, though.
