Rename some test scripts and describe the naming convention
First digit: "family", e.g. the absolute basics and global stuff (0), the basic db-side commands (read-tree, write-tree, commit-tree), the basic working-tree-side commands (checkout-cache, update-cache), the other basic commands (ls-files), the diff commands, the pull commands, exporting commands, revision tree commands... Second digit: the particular command we are testing Third digit: (optionally) the particular switch or group of switches we are testing Freeform part: commandname-details Described in the README. mv t1000-checkout-cache.sh t2000-checkout-cache-clash.sh mv t1001-checkout-cache.sh t2001-checkout-cache-clash.sh mv t0200-update-cache.sh t2010-update-cache-badpath.sh mv t0400-ls-files.sh t3000-ls-files-others.sh mv t0500-ls-files.sh t3010-ls-files-killed.sh

+where N is a decimal digit.
+
+First digit tells the family:
+
+ 0 - the absolute basics and global stuff
+ 1 - the basic commands concerning database
+ 2 - the basic commands concerning the working tree
+ 3 - the other basic commands (e.g. ls-files)
+ 4 - the diff commands
+ 5 - the pull and exporting commands
+ 6 - the revision tree commands (even e.g. merge-base)
+
+Second digit tells the particular command we are testing.
+
+Third digit (optionally) tells the particular switch or group of switches
+we are testing.
