In the first test in this script, 'creates a report with content in the right places', we generate a report and pipe it into our helper `check_all_headers_populated()`. The idea of the helper is to find all lines that look like headers ("[Some Header Here]") and to check that the next line is non-empty. This is supposed to catch erroneous outputs such as the following: [A Header] something more here [Another Header] [Too Early Header] contents However, we provide the lines of the bug report as filenames to grep, meaning we mostly end up spewing errors: grep: : No such file or directory grep: [System Info]: No such file or directory grep: git version:: No such file or directory grep: git version 2.31.1.164.g984c2561cd: No such file This doesn't disturb the test, which tugs along and reports success, not really having verified the contents of the report at all. Note that after 788a776069 ("bugreport: collect list of populated hooks", 2020-05-07), the bug report, which is created in our hook-less test repo, contains an empty section with the enabled hooks. Thus, even the intention of our helper is a bit misguided: there is nothing inherently wrong with having an empty section in the bug report. Let's instead grep for some contents that we expect to find in a bug report. We won't verify that they appear in the right order, but at least we end up verifying the contents more than before this commit.
