Subject: [PATCH v2 02/13] t6120-describe: modernize the 'check_describe' helper

From: SZEDER Gábor <[email-masked]>
Date: Tue, 12 Nov 2019 11:38:10 +0100

The 'check_describe' helper function runs 'git describe' outside of
'test_expect_success' blocks, with extra hand-rolled code to record
and examine its exit code.

Update this helper and move the 'git decribe' invocation inside the
'test_expect_success' block.
