Add tests for new formatting atoms: rest, deltabase, objectsize:disk. rest means nothing and we expand it into empty string. We need this atom for cat-file command. Have plans to support deltabase and objectsize:disk further (as it is done in cat-file), now also expand it to empty string.
I'm glad that you're adding tests, but I'm not sure it's a good idea to add tests checking for the thing we know to be wrong. If anything, you could be adding test_expect_failure looking for the _right_ thing, and accept that it does not yet work. -Peff
