Change the gitweb_run test subroutine to spew errors to stderr if there are any, previously it would just silently fail, which made tests very hard to debug. Before you'd get this output, when running tests under `--verbose --immediate --debug`: expecting success: git rm renamed_file && rm -f renamed_file && git commit -a -m "File removed." && gitweb_run "p=.git;a=commitdiff" rm 'renamed_file' [master 8d80741] File removed.
