We are making sure we won't be affected by previous tests.  We
assume that we did not set color.diff.{old,new} to these two colors,
but that would be an OK assumption to make.

But then this introduces a dependence to an earlier _specific_ test,
the one that created this version (among three) of actual.raw;

If we did this instead

	git diff --color --color-moved=zebra --no-renames HEAD >expect &&

it would make this a lot more self-contained.

Also, please do stick to the normal CLI ocnvention, dashed options
come before the revs, i.e.

	git -c diff.external=false diff --no-ext-diff --color \
		--color-moved=zebra --no-renames HEAD >actual &&

Our tests shouldn't be setting a wrong example.

Other than that, looking very good.

Thanks.
