Judging from the way the first failure happens, it appears that
some code depends on a kind of shell portability issues?

The failure is under GNU bash, version 5.1.4(1)-release (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu)

Ah, I think I know what is going on.

test_trailer_option() {
	title="$1"
	option="$2"
	expect="$3"
	test_expect_success "$title" '
		echo $expect >expect &&
		git for-each-ref --format="%($option)" refs/heads/main >actual &&
		test_cmp expect actual &&
		git for-each-ref --format="%(contents:$option)" refs/heads/main >actual &&
		test_cmp expect actual
	'
}

Not quoting "$expect" given to 'echo' inside double-quote is
criminal, but I do not think that contributes to this particular
failure.  The problem is in the callers.

test_trailer_option '%(trailers:key=foo) shows that trailer' \
	'trailers:key=Signed-off-by' 'Signed-off-by: A U Thor <author@example.com>\n'


Doing

	expect='foo\n'
	echo $expect

and expecting that somebody would magically turn \n to a true
newline is the bug.  Not everybody's builtin "echo" works that way.

Here is a quick fix-up.  I didn't check which parts are to be blamed
on which patch of yours, if any, so you might need to split them up
into multiple pieces (i.e. a preliminary clean-up patch, and a patch
each to be applied to part N/3 (1 <= N <= 3) of your patch).
