Hi Jens,

commit 61b6a633 ("commit -v: strip diffs and submodule shortlogs
from the commit message", 19-11-2013) in 'pu' fails the new test
it added to t7507.

I didn't spend too long looking at the problem, so take this patch
as nothing more than a quick suggestion for a possible solution! :-P
[The err file contained something like: "There was a problem with the
editor '"$FAKE_EDITOR"'"].

Having said that, this fixes it for me ...
Well spotted.  test_must_fail being a shell function, not a command,
we shouldn't have used the "VAR=val cmd" one-shot environment
assignment for portability.

Even though this happens to be the last test in the script, using
test_set_editor to permanently affect the choice of editor for tests
that follow is not generally a good idea.  It would be safer to do
this, I would have to say:

		git commit -a -m "submodule commit"
	) &&
        (
		GIT_EDITOR=cat &&
                export GIT_EDITOR &&
                test_must_fail git commit -a -v 2>err
	) &&
        test_i18ngrep "Aborting ..."

Thanks.
