The above was about some code that looks like this:

|	for i in 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11
| 	do
|		git checkout -b root$i five || return

The fixes alluded to might go something like this.  Thoughts?

Jonathan Nieder (2):
  test: simplify return value of test_run_
  test: cope better with use of return for errors
