Fix a logic error in a082345372e (hook API: fix v2.36.0 regression:
hooks should be connected to a TTY, 2022-06-07). When it started using
the "ungroup" API added in fd3aaf53f71 (run-command: add an "ungroup"
option to run_process_parallel(), 2022-06-07) it should have made the
same sort of change that fd3aaf53f71 itself made in
"t/helper/test-run-command.c".
The correct way to emit this "Couldn't start" output with "ungroup"
would be:
fprintf(stderr, _("Couldn't start hook '%s'\n"), hook_path);
But we should instead remove the emitting of this output. As the added
test shows we already emit output when we can't run the child. The
"cannot run" output here is emitted by run-command.c's
child_err_spew().
So the addition of the "Couldn't start hook" output here in
96e7225b310 (hook: add 'run' subcommand, 2021-12-22) was always
redundant. For the pre-commit hook we'll now emit exactly the same
output as we did before f443246b9f2 (commit: convert
{pre-commit,prepare-commit-msg} hook to hook.h, 2021-12-22) (and
likewise for others).
We could at this point add this to the pick_next_hook() callbacks in
hook.c:
assert(!out);
assert(!*pp_task_cb);
And this to notify_start_failure() and notify_hook_finished() (in the
latter case the parameter is called "pp_task_cp"):
assert(!out);
assert(!pp_task_cb);
But let's leave any such instrumentation for some eventual cleanup of
the "ungroup" API.

As suspected I needed to bounce this off the CI once to due to the
OS-specific messaging around failed hooks, it passes now:
https://github.com/avar/git/actions/runs/2802782493Emily, other than the added code to deal with the difference in expected error message between Windows and other platforms, and the name of the temporary file used by the test to capture the raw error output, both in the t1800, everything is the same as the one you gave your Reviewed-by earlier, which I'll transplant while queuing this round. Ævar, thanks for a quick fix. This will have to go on top of ab/hooks-regresion-fix topic and downmerged to 2.36 maintenance track. Thanks, all.
