Subject: t2203: avoid suppressing git status exit code
X-Git-Tag: v2.54.0-rc0~14^2
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=4c2390067030d67c1b79fd96eb656ae63b91643b;p=thirdparty%2Fgit.git

t2203: avoid suppressing git status exit code

When git status is piped into grep, the exit status of the Git
command is hidden by the pipeline. Capture the status output in a
temporary file first, and then filter it as needed, so that any
failure from git status is still noticed by the test suite.
