The previous patch resolved most of the test failures caused by
running our test suite with '-x' tracing and /bin/sh, and the
following patches in this series will resolve almost all of the
remaining failures. Unfortunately, not yet all.
Add means to disable '-x' tracing for individual test scripts by
setting the $test_untraceable variable to a non-empty value in the
test script before sourcing 'test-lib.sh'. However, since '-x'
tracing is not an issue with recent Bash versions supporting
BASH_XTRACEFD, i.e. v4.1 and later, don't disable tracing when the
test script is run with such a Bash version even when
$test_untraceable is set.

Running a test script with '-x' turns on 'set -x' tracing, the output
of which is normally sent to stderr. This causes a lot of
test failures, because many tests redirect and verify the stderr
of shell functions, most frequently that of 'test_must_fail'.
These issues were worked around somewhat in d88785e424 (test-lib: set
BASH_XTRACEFD automatically, 2016-05-11), so at least we could
reliably run tests with '-x' tracing under a Bash version supporting
BASH_XTRACEFD, i.e. v4.1 and later.
Futhermore, redirecting the stderr of test helper functions like
'test_must_fail' or 'test_expect_code' is the cause of a different
issue as well. If these functions detect something unexpected, they
will write their error messages intended to the user to thier stderr.
However, if their stderr is redirected in order to save and verify the
stderr of the tested git command invoked in the function, then the
function's error messages will be redirected as well. Consequently,
those messages won't reach the user, making the test's verbose output
less useful.
This patch makes it safe to redirect and verify the stderr of those
test helper functions which are meant to run the tested command given
as argument, even when running tests with '-x' and /bin/sh. This is
achieved through a couple of file descriptor redirections:
- Duplicate stderr of the tested command executed in the test helper
function from the function's fd 7 (see next point), to ensure that
the tested command's error messages go to a different fd than the
'-x' trace of the commands executed in the function or the
function's error messages.
- Duplicate the test helper function's fd 7 from the function's
original stderr, meaning that, after taking a detour through fd 7,
the error messages of the tested command do end up on the
function's original stderr.
- Duplicate stderr of the test helper function from fd 4, i.e. the
fd connected to the test script's original stderr and the fd used
for BASH_XTRACEFD. This ensures that the '-x' trace of the
commands executed in the function
- doesn't go to the function's original stderr, so it won't mess
with callers who want to save and verify the tested command's
stderr.
- does go to the same fd independently from the shell running
the test script, be it /bin/sh, an older Bash without
BASH_XTRACEFD, or a more recent Bash already supporting
BASH_XTRACEFD.
Furthermore, this also makes sure that the function's error
messages go to this fd 4, meaning that the user will be able to
see them even if the function's stderr is redirected in the test.
- Specify the latter two redirections above in the test helper
function's definition, so they are performed every time the
function is invoked, without the need to modify the callsites of
the function.
Perform these redirections in those test helper functions which can be
expected to have their stderr redirected, i.e. in the functions
'test_must_fail', 'test_might_fail', 'test_expect_code', 'test_env',
'nongit', 'test_terminal' and 'perl'. Note that 'test_might_fail',
'test_env', and 'nongit' are not involved in any test failures when
running tests with '-x' and /bin/sh.
The other test helper functions are left unchanged, because they
either don't run commands specified as their arguments, or redirecting
their stderr wouldn't make sense, or both.
With this change the number of failures when running the test suite
with '-x' tracing and /bin/sh goes down from 340 failed tests in 43
test scripts to 22 failed tests in 6 scripts (or 23 in 7, if the
system (OSX) uses an older Bash version without BASH_XTRACEFD to run
't9903-bash-prompt.sh').

The sequencer infrastructure is shared across "git cherry-pick",
