Subject: [PATCH] t7406: Make a test_must_fail call fail for the right reason
Date: Fri,  3 Aug 2018 16:14:07 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180803231407.10662-1-newren@gmail.com> (raw)

A test making use of test_must_fail was failing like this:
  fatal: ambiguous argument '|': unknown revision or path not in the working tree.
when the intent was to verify that a specific string was not found
in the output of the git diff command, i.e. that grep returned
non-zero.  Fix the test to do that.
