[PATCH 2/1] Verify that --cherry-pick avoids looking at full diffs

[Johannes Schindelin <Johannes.Schindelin@gmx.de>]

The entire point of the previous patch was to make sure that we look at
abbreviated patch IDs (using the diff *headers* only, but avoiding
to load the blobs into memory and diff them) first, and only look at
full patch IDs when the abbreviated patch IDs were not for the
--cherry-pick test.

Let's make sure that we actually avoid looking at the full patch ID,
simply by corrupting an object that is needed for the full patch ID, and
then seeing that --cherry-pick still works.

	And here it is. I verified that this test passes with your patch
	and fails without it.
