I was hoping the coverage patch would give people an incentive to
write some ;-)

Seriously, the list is huge.  Running the tests in my private
next-and-then-some branch[*], summarizing by function counts and
filtering for >2 untested functions shows:

      4 builtin-apply.c
      4 builtin-blame.c
      6 builtin-fetch-pack.c
      3 builtin-fsck.c
      6 builtin-log.c
      4 builtin-pack-objects.c
      4 builtin-rev-parse.c
      6 builtin-show-branch.c
      3 builtin-update-index.c
      4 builtin-upload-archive.c
      3 config.c
      7 connect.c
      8 date.c
      4 diffcore-order.c
      3 fsck.c
      8 help.c
      5 index-pack.c
      6 merge-file.c
      4 mktree.c
      4 object.c
      4 pager.c
      3 refs.c
      3 shell.c

plus some matches in HTTP, IMAP etc. code that I'll just ignore for
now.

Some of it is fairly easy stuff; for example, rev-parse
--{all,branches,tags,remotes} is completely untested according to the
coverage report.  I might add more tests as my time allows, but it is
also limited.
