[PATCH v3 0/2] [Outreachy][Patch v2] t3404: avoid losing exit status to pipes

["Usman Akinyemi via GitGitGadget" <gitgitgadget@gmail.com>]

At the beginning of my task, I made the mistake of submitting two patches
for two separate commits instead of one. The first patch addressed the issue
of losing the Git exit status due to pipes.

After submitting the first patch, I noticed that the output of wc -l was
failing due to trailing whitespace. I attempted to fix this by using tr -d
to remove the whitespace. However, instead of squashing the two patches into
one, I inadvertently created another commit.

Eric Sunshine sunshine@sunshineco.com provided valuable feedback during the
review process. He explained the details of the patches to me and pointed
out that using tr -d was unnecessary to resolve the whitespace issue.

The root cause of the whitespace issue was quoting $count in the test
command, which led to the inclusion of whitespace in the comparison. By
removing the quotes around $count, the comparison works as expected without
the need for tr -d.

     -    [Outreachy][Patch v1] t3404: avoid losing exit status to pipes
     +    t3404: avoid losing exit status with focus on `git show` and `git cat-files`
      
          The exit code of the preceding command in a pipe is disregarded. So
          if that preceding command is a Git command that fails, the test would
          not fail. Instead, by saving the output of that Git command to a file,
          and removing the pipe, we make sure the test will fail if that Git
     -    command fails.
     +    command fails. This particular patch focuses on some of the instances
     +    which include `git show` and `git cat-files`.
