The following is the original test before your patch, right?

Here we run one "fetch" inside downstream, with a config specific to
the downstream repository; the expectation is that this on-demand
setting is honored, overriding the "global" setting that was set on
line 421.

And then we discard the "global" setting.

Oh, I thought I saw there was another fetch before this unset
between 436 and 437, that writes to the same actual.out and
actual.err.

Exactly.  Thanks and sorry for the noise.
