The test 'no-op fetch without "-v" is quiet' in 't5570-git-daemon.sh' fails when the test script is run with '-x' tracing (and using a shell other than a Bash version supporting BASH_XTRACEFD). The reason for the failure is that the test checks the emptiness of a subshell's stderr, which includes the trace of commands executed in that subshell as well, throwing off the emptiness check. Save the stderr of 'git fetch' only instead of the whole subshell's, so it remains free from tracing output. After this change t5570 passes with '-x', even when running with /bin/sh.
