I agree this Makefile is not a good test to ship out.  It was my quickie
test rig that I should have reworked before adding to the patch.  Sorry.

I see contrib/subtree/t and contrib/mw-to-git/t that I could copy.  The
test will have a few files to parse, and will be able to compare the
expected to the actual output.  Does that sound like a good plan?
