Re: [GSOC][RFC PATCH 1/1] t: t7301-clean-interactive: Use test_path_is_(missing|file)

From: Christian Couder <hidden>

About the subject, instead of "t: t7301-clean-interactive: Use ...",
something like "t7301-clean-interactive: use ..." or "t7301: use ..."
would be better. First because there is no need for both "t:" and
"t7301-clean-interactive:" for the "area" part of the subject. Only
one "area" part is enough. Second because the first word after the
"area" part should not be capitalized. See:

Replace test -(f|e) with the appropriate helper functions provided by

I think your commit message should explain why it's better to use
test_path_is_(missing|file) instead of test -(f|e).

Also replacing `test ! -f` with `test_path_is_missing` might be wrong
if it's Ok to have a directory instead of a file (in which case the
latter would fail while the former would work). So a few words about
why it's Ok to do it here would be nice.

Thanks!
