I would look into putting it into a module and then using the PERL5OPT

For instance if you put that code into a module called Git/DieTrap.pm

then you could do:

PERL5OPT=-MGit::DieTrap

In your test setup code assuming you have some. Then you don't need to
change any of your scripts just the test runner framework.
That's a clever trick.

It's not clear to me though if we just want to tweak the programs run in
the test scripts in order to get test_must_fail to stop complaining, or
if we consider the unusual exit codes from our perl-based Git programs
to be an error that should be fixed for real use, too.
