Charles Bailey d417c244ec contrib/subtree: fix broken &&-chains and revealed test error
This fixes two instances where a &&-chain was broken in the subtree
tests and fixes a test error that was revealed because of this.

Many tests in t7900-subtree.sh make a commit and then use 'undo' to
reset the state for the next test. In the 'check hash of split' test,
an 'undo' was being invoked after a 'subtree split' even though the
particular invocation of 'subtree split' did not actually make a commit.
The subsequent check_equal was failing, but this failure was masked by
that broken &&-chain.

Removing this undo causes the failing check_equal to succeed but breaks
the a check_equal later on in the same test.

It turns out that an earlier test ('check if --message for merge works
with squash too') makes a commit but doesn't 'undo' to the state
expected by the remaining tests. None of the intervening tests cared
enough about the state of the test repo to fail and the spurious 'undo'
in 'check hash of split' restored the expected state for any remaining
test that might care.

Adding the missing 'undo' to 'check if --message for merge works
with squash too' and removing the spurious one from 'check hash of
split' fixes all tests once the &&-chains are completed.

Contributed Software

Although these pieces are available as part of the official git
source tree, they are in somewhat different status.  The
intention is to keep interesting tools around git here, maybe
even experimental ones, to give users an easier access to them,
and to give tools wider exposure, so that they can be improved
faster.

I am not expecting to touch these myself that much.  As far as
my day-to-day operation is concerned, these subdirectories are
owned by their respective primary authors.  I am willing to help
if users of these components and the contrib/ subtree "owners"
have technical/design issues to resolve, but the initiative to
fix and/or enhance things _must_ be on the side of the subtree
owners.  IOW, I won't be actively looking for bugs and rooms for
enhancements in them as the git maintainer -- I may only do so
just as one of the users when I want to scratch my own itch.  If
you have patches to things in contrib/ area, the patch should be
first sent to the primary author, and then the primary author
should ack and forward it to me (git pull request is nicer).
This is the same way as how I have been treating gitk, and to a
lesser degree various foreign SCM interfaces, so you know the
drill.

I expect that things that start their life in the contrib/ area
to graduate out of contrib/ once they mature, either by becoming
projects on their own, or moving to the toplevel directory.  On
the other hand, I expect I'll be proposing removal of disused
and inactive ones from time to time.

If you have new things to add to this area, please first propose
it on the git mailing list, and after a list discussion proves
there are some general interests (it does not have to be a
list-wide consensus for a tool targeted to a relatively narrow
audience -- for example I do not work with projects whose
upstream is svn, so I have no use for git-svn myself, but it is
of general interest for people who need to interoperate with SVN
repositories in a way git-svn works better than git-svnimport),
submit a patch to create a subdirectory of contrib/ and put your
stuff there.
