[Outreachy PATCH] t2104: avoid suppressing git's exit code

flat view
HOTtoday

From: Cynthia Uche <hidden>
Date: 2026-10-21 03:38:47
Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

The exit code of the upstream command in a pipeline is lost, so a
crash in 'git ls-files' would go unnoticed. Write the output to a
file and compare that instead.
