Shouldn't you reset signal(SIGPIPE) to its previous value?

Done (provided that the sigchain_push/pop infrastructure works the way
I expect).

I'm not sure, either. Peff?

This test fails on Windows without the code change and passes with the
code change. So, it's a good test.

But actually I meant you to make a test that triggers the SIGPIPE that
would kill git-fetch if it were not ignored. This one doesn't trigger it,
either.
