Place the loop(s) inside the subshell, and you observe termination on the
first failure, and a failure exit code of the subshell.

The change proposed in this patch should not be necessary. Something else
must be wrong with your tests.

Ah, here it is:

@@ -58,7 +58,7 @@ test_expect_success GPG 'show signatures' '
 	(
 		for commit in merge^2 fourth-unsigned sixth-unsigned seventh-unsigned
 		do
-			git show --pretty=short --show-signature $commit >actual &&
+			git show --pretty=short --show-signature $commit >actual || exit 1
 			grep "Good signature from" actual && exit 1
 			! grep "BAD signature from" actual || exit 1
 			echo $commit OK

Notice the '&& exit 1'! It should be '|| exit 1', right?
