Hmm, it seems there are quite a lot of strange uses of subshells in
tests.  I have only started the task you describe.  But here are
a couple of patches of that kind.

Patch 1 re-indents the subshells you introduced.  I have not checked
that those subshells are all semantically neutral (and in fact some
seem not to be, but I think for the better); in fact, the main goal of
that patch is to help other people review yours.

Patch 2 teaches the fsck tests to use test_when_finished.  This
causes some pointless subshells to be removed, and more importantly,
it fixes the cleanup to actually work, so there are no dangling
objects by the end.

Patch 3 adds a missing && in t2105 (.git file pointing to .git dir).  
The style cleanup for that file has been done locally but I do not
think it's worth sending yet.

Patch 4 teaches the "unwritable file" error handling tests to use
test_when_finished.  This causes some pointless subshells to be
removed, and more importantly, it simplifies the script a lot.

Patch 5 is a style cleanup for the core.repositoryversion tests
(mostly to do with formatting of subshells, but there are other
things).

Patch 6: likewise, for the git config tests.

Patch 7 is perhaps iffy.  I find it easier to read

	printf "%s\n" some long list of lines

than

	(echo some; echo long; echo list; echo of; echo lines)

but others might disagree; anyway, this patch change the latter
to the former (and adds a missing && while at it).

I hope such mundane patches are not too painful to read.
