The primary purpose of 't6022-merge-rename.sh' is to test 'git merge', but one of the tests runs it upstream of a pipe, hiding its exit code. Consequently, the test could continue even if 'git merge' exited with error. Use an intermediate file between 'git merge' and 'test_i18ngrep' to catch a potential failure of the former.
