I'm looking at some of this again. Yeah that was a bug in Christian's
code, but interestingly if you just create literal sharedindex_XXXXXX
files (don't replace the X's) the whole test suite passes under
GIT_TEST_SPLIT_INDEX=true
That seems like a major blindspot, i.e. we don't seem to have tests that
stress test the case of >1 split index.
