Pipes themselves are not necessarily problematic, and there are many
places in the test suite where they are legitimately used. Rather...

... as you correctly explain here, we don't want to lose the exit code
from the Git command. Thus, if you want to convey more information to
readers of `git log --oneline` (or other such commands), a better
subject for the patch might be:

    t2400: avoid losing Git exit code

That minor comment aside (which is probably not worth a reroll), the
commit message properly explains why this change is desirable and the
patch itself looks good.

Thanks for following the style guideline and omitting whitespace
between the redirection operator and the destination file.
