The helper function `test_must_fail ()` executes a specific Git command
that may or may not fail in a specific way. This is done by executing
the command in question and then comparing its exit code against a set
of conditions.
This works, but once we run our test suite with `set -e` we may bail out
of `test_must_fail ()` early in case the command actually fails, even
though we expect it to fail. Prepare for this change by handling the
failed case with `||`.
