OK, yesterday I overlooked that the patch added this line:

  +       opts.progress = isatty(2);

So, the first question is whether that behavior change is desired; I
don't really have an opinion.  But if it is desired, then it should be
changed in a separate patch, explaining why it is desired, I would
think.

Well, the way I see it the root issue is that the test checks things
that it shouldn't.

Yeah, it should rather go on top of 'ds/commit-graph-octopus-fix'.
