Nice.

These are the other way around.  When 'clone' fails, test_when_finished
is not run, so nobody arranges the new directory 'client' to be removed.
"git clone" does try to remove in such a case, but we are protecting
against a failing "clone", so swapping them around, i.e. arrange to
remove it and then try to create it, would make more sense.

Probably the same principle applies here, but the case where "git
config" fails, it is likely that the file is not touched at all, or
it gets so corrupt beyond salvaging with another "config set", so it
matters much less than the previous one.

The test clone is identical to the previous one except for the
four-line comment in the middle.  The set-up on the other side is
different (the server has remote.lop.url set in the previous one to
empty, and unset in this one, which should amount to the same
thing).  Makes sense.
