Subject: [PATCH v4 01/10] t5526: introduce test helper to assert on fetches

From: Glen Choo <[email-masked]>
Date: Thu, 3 Mar 2022 16:57:48 -0800

Tests in t/t5526-fetch-submodules.sh are unnecessarily noisy:

* The tests have extra logic in order to reproduce the expected stderr
  literally, but not all of these details (e.g. the head of the
  remote-tracking branch before the fetch) are relevant to the test.

* The expect.err file is constructed by the add_upstream_commit() helper
  as input into test_cmp, but most tests fetch a different combination
  of repos from expect.err. This results in noisy tests that modify
  parts of that expect.err to generate the expected output.

To address both of these issues, introduce a verify_fetch_result()
helper to t/t5526-fetch-submodules.sh that asserts on the output of "git
fetch --recurse-submodules" and handles the ordering of expect.err.

As a result, the tests no longer construct expect.err manually. Tests
still consider the old head of the remote-tracking branch ("$head1"),
but that will be fixed in a later commit.
