Re: [PATCHv2] branch -d: test if we can delete broken refs

[Michael Haggerty <mhagger@alum.mit.edu>]

Aside from one tiny formatting nit (see below), the test looks good to
me. On the other hand, this is kind of an "aspirational test"; I don't
know that the tested functionality has ever worked or that anybody has
ever claimed that it works. So my feeling is that the addition of the
test would feel more natural in the patch series that implements the new
feature. But I don't feel strongly about it.
