One way to avoid this is to add ignored lines to the test-coverage
repo [1]. These only work if the exact contents match on a specific
line number, but can be a way to stop noise in the short-term.

For example, I added a few lines to ignore in commit-graph.c [2],
but I haven't added ignored lines in a while.

I'm happy to take a PR including the lines you want to ignore, or
I could take inventory of the lines in the current report before regenerating
a test for -rc1.
