Despite the URL of the second git being broken, I notice that you have some "-v" output tacked onto the first gist. Indeed, the "-v" output isn't very helpful here. What I normally do when debugging failing tests is run with "-x" and "-i". The "-x" shows all the output the test produces, including any error messages. So "./t7508-status.sh -x -i" would likely make it easier to diagnose such failures. (But first try the suggestion I made in my previous reply for isolating the new tests in their own repository.)
