I think that one is Ok as there is no git specific hacks in the semantics.
It is a straight "Run this command, and make sure you get this exit code".

The "must-fail" is really a special case in that we just do not expect any
failure, but expect a controlled failure.  Currently we only catch segv,
but we should anticipate that we will reject other types of uncontrolled
failures in the future, and keeping the function "git-only" makes it
easier to manage.
