[PATCH] Fix a false negative in t5512 when run using sh -x

From: Johannes Sixt <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-15 22:48:46
Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

The test compares the stderr of a git command called with test_must_fail
to some expected output. With bash (and probably other shells as well)
when run with -x turned on, command trace output ends up in the captured
output. Of course, the actual output does not match the expected output
anymore.

Use 'grep' to check for expected output.
