This certainly isn't helping:

$ancient will always be empty, as rev-list needs a "HEAD" argument.

I also think HEAD~100 is probably _too_ recent, as it is not enough to
match any tags at all right now.

So with this patch:

diff --git a/t/perf/p7000-tag-contains.sh b/t/perf/p7000-tag-contains.sh
index 846f106..8294d41 100755

+	ancient=$(git rev-list HEAD | tail -n 1)

 test_expect_success 'find most recent tag' '

I get:

  Test                              ffc4b80^          origin/master             HEAD

which looks about right.
