No, I do mean 'next'.  See "A note from the maintainer" post that
are sent to the list every once in a while (i.e. after a new release
is tagged) for the project structure.

Testing "git -p" is not the goal; testing that decorate defaults to
auto during an interactive session is.  We could run tests under pty
like t7006 does using lib-terminal.sh if we really want to emulate
an interactive session.  

Exporting GIT_PAGER_IN_USE may be sufficient for the purpose of
convincing the command to be in an interactive session for this
test, even though it feels a bit too brittle to depend on the
internal implementation detail.

Thanks.
