I think the Subject: goes a lot better with a description like this:

	Enhance the test to check the case where X does Y and to
	make sure Z happens.

	Because we haven't settled on what the exit status from
	"git push" command itself should be in such a partial
	failure case, do not check the exit status from it for
	now.

So it makes another ref "b3" point at the initial commit,...

... and checks that untouched "b3" stays the same (iow, tests
up-to-date case).

Ah, you meant that tracking should be deleted so this should be
fixed in the code but the test is disabled for now.  Let's be a
bit more explicit about such a temporary disabled test, like
this:

	git push origin :refs/heads/b3

	# The remote-tracking branch origin/b3 should be deleted;
        # we need to update the code and enable this test.
        : git rev-parse --verify origin/b3 &&
