Four 'cvs diff' related tests in 't9402-git-cvsserver-refs.sh' fail when the test script is run with '-x' tracing (and using a shell other than a Bash version supporting BASH_XTRACEFD). The reason for those failures is that the tests check 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 stdout and stderr of the invoked 'cvs' command instead of the whole subshell, so the latter remains free from tracing output. (Note that changing how stdout is saved is only done for the sake of consistency, it's not necessary for correctness.) After this change t9402 passes with '-x', even when running with /bin/sh.
