+test_description='Correctly identify and parse loose object headers
+
+There are two file formats for loose objects - the original standard
+format, and the experimental format introduced with Git v1.4.3, later
+deprecated with v1.5.3. Although Git no longer writes the
+experimental format, objects in both formats must be read, with the
+format for a given file being determined by the header.
+
+Detecting file format based on header is not entirely trivial, not
+least because the first byte of a zlib-deflated stream will vary
+depending on how much memory was allocated for the deflation window
+buffer when the object was written out (for example 4KB on Android,
+rather that 32KB on a normal PC).
+
+The loose objects used as test vectors have been generated with the
+following Git versions:
+
+standard format: Git v1.7.4.1
+experimental format: Git v1.4.3 (legacyheaders=false)
+standard format, deflated with 4KB window size: Agit/JGit on Android
