I suspect that it makes sense to replace the "git stash" we see below with something like this: test_must_fail git commit -m should fail && echo "git stash <git@stash>" >expect && echo >2 && git stash && git show -s --format="%(authorname) <%(authoremail)>" refs/stash >actual && test_cmp expect actual That is - we make sure "commit" would not go through, to make sure our preparation to unset environment variables was sufficient; - we make sure "stash" does succeed (which is the primary thing you are interested in); - we make sure the resulting "stash" is not created under our default identity but under our fallback one.
