The above duplicates a rather simple test, and only differences
between them are the embedded object names. Can't you use the
test_oid_cache & test_oid mechanism to reduce the repetition to
make the tests easier to maintain? It may look something like this:
test_expect_success 'Y: reference pending tag or commit' '
test_oid_cache <<-EOF &&
pending_commit sha1:86b46d....5a04
pending_commit sha256:17e65...ed3d
pending_tag sha1:ec6c6d...77a7
pending_tag sha256:85edc5...1f46
EOF
git init reference-pending &&
(
cd reference-pending &&
git fast-import <<-EOF &&
commit refs/heads/main
committer A U Thor <author@example.com> 1712563200 +0000
...
dummy content
tag newtag
from $(test_oid pending_commit)
tagger A U Thor <author@example.com> 1712563300 +0000
...
data 19
more dummy content
done
EOF
)
