The issue does not have much to do with introducing new path to the
cloned repository, or the original having any specific content for
that matter, so I am tempted to simplify the above to something like
this intead:

	test_create_repo A &&
	git -C A commit --allow-empty -m "initial commit" &&
	git clone --shared A B &&
	git -C B commit --allow-empty -m "next commit" &&
	git -C B prune

Thanks.
