You probably missed the - indicating that the "test $? = 1" was being
removed.

But using test_expect_code indeed has a similar problem to the one
you point out: it does not nicely discern between outcomes in a test
with multiple commands.  This shows up in some of the later tests in
this script (which is presumably why the original patch did not
touch them).

Maybe something like this would improve things?

Subject: t4017 (diff-retval): factor out check_exit_status helper

When reporting a difference with --exit-code, diff is not only
supposed to fail but to fail with status 1.  Unfortunately, the shell
code to check for that has to amount to

	git diff --exit-code this that
	test $? = 1

which breaks &&-chaining if the script author is not cautious.

This test script already avoids trouble by putting such code in { }
blocks, but that is a bit clunky; better to notice the pattern and
give it its own function.

While at it, improve the output on failure when debugging with -v
by printing the expected and actual exit code (by using test_cmp).
The temporary files expect.status and actual.status used to
bring this about do not adversely affect the test because those
filenames are not tracked, hence not candidates for diffing.
