Re: [PATCH v2 01/27] t1400: Fix name and expected result of one test

 The test

 stdin -z create ref fails with zero new value

 actually passes an empty new value, not a zero new value.  So rename
 the test s/zero/empty/, and change the expected error from

 fatal: create $c given zero new value

 to

 fatal: create $c missing newvalue

I have a feeling that zero new value might have been done by a
non-native (like me) to say no new value; missing newvalue
sounds like a good phrasing to use.

 Of course, this makes the test fail now, so mark it
 test_expect_failure.  The failure will be fixed later in this patch
 series.

That sounds somewhat strange.  Why not just give a single-liner to
update-ref.c instead?

This is because there really is a difference between the two errors, and
git update-ref tries to emit distinct error messages for them:

* zero new value means that the new value was 0{40}
* missing newvalue means that the new value was absent

The problem is that it is not distinguishing between these two cases
correctly, and fixing *that* is more than a one-liner.
