With debug and verbose options it says following:

* expecting success: 

        git rev-parse second master >expect &&
        test_must_fail git merge second master &&
        git checkout master g &&
        echo "here comes the breakage" &&
        EDITOR=: git commit -a &&
        echo "survived!" &&
        git cat-file commit HEAD | sed -n -e "s/^parent //p" -e "/^$/q" >actual &&
        test_cmp expect actual



*** Please tell me who you are.

Run

  git config --global user.email "you@example.com"
  git config --global user.name "Your Name"

to set your account's default identity.
Omit --global to set the identity only in this repository.

                test_cmp expect actual

My /bin/sh is dash, but it breaks with bash, too.

What else could/should I provide?
