It might be simpler to just convert test_completion into the
test_completion_long I added in my series; the latter takes the expected
output on stdin, leaving the actual arguments free to represent the real
command-line. E.g., your example would become:

  test_completion git "foo bar" baz <<-\EOF
  ... expected output ...
  EOF
