OK these are easy to verify, as we can clearly see that the
intention is for these two settings to affect no later tests.

This test used to leave both branch.d.dummy and branch.e.dummy behind
for later tests. Now with this patch, we clean branch.d.dummy
because we use test_config, but branch.e.dummy that was copied by
successful "git branch -c" will still be left.
- It is unforunate that it is impossible to verify that the change
in behaviour for branch.d.dummy is correct. Without checking all
the remainder of the test (and no, grepping for branch.d.dummy is
not "checking all the remainder"---a later "branch -c d x" would
have created brnach.x.dummy in the original, but with this patch,
it would not), which is time consuming, that is.
I trust you made sure that branch.d.dummy is never used after
this test is done---it would have been good to explain it either
in the proposed log message or after three-dash that you did
check and how to save reviewer bandwidth.
- Are you deliberatly leaving branch.e.dummy uncleaned, or is it a
mere oversight?

The same comment for branch.copy.dummy and branch.copy-to.dummy
applies.
I'll stop here for now. Thanks for starting this clean-up.
