# The tests need a branch called master.
#
# If master is locally absent but more than one remote has it, checkout fails
# by default even if all remotes agree, and we fall back to creating it at
# HEAD. The reflog we populate below then traces HEAD's history rather than
# a remote master's, but master is reset to __testing_point__ either way.
