Perhaps we can write that in the log message to help the next person
who reads the patch?  Something like...

    t3428: restore coverage for "apply" backend
    
    This test file assumes the "apply" backend is the default which is
    not the case since 2ac0d6273f (rebase: change the default backend
    from "am" to "merge", 2020-02-15).  The way "merge" backend honors
    "--signoff" is already tested elsewhere, so make sure the "apply"
    backend is tested by specifying it explicitly.
