I do not think using "two strings" check for that one is very
useful.  You cannot tell where two 40-HEX came from.

And that is why I suggested "-i -v -x".

By the way, I cannot think of a reason why your CI cannot always run
the tests with GIT_TEST_OPTS="-v -x" exported.

> For the sake of having better reporting, say, in Continuous Integration (where re-running tests via `sh -x t????-*.sh -i -v` -- as Junio suggested -- is not an option), I agree that it would be good to report the non-matching strings.
