Why not use heredoc syntax (cat <<\EOF), or prepare a file
with expected output in the testsuite?

The tests involving renames needed to embed a tab character
in the output and hiding a tab character in a heredoc seemed
error prone.  So to be consistent I made them all printf-style.

Also, some of the tests include SHAs for the commit and for
file content, so having pre-computed expected output is awkward.
Granted we could hard code the file SHAs, but not the commits.
