s/PUPE/PIPE/ :)
I think it would be nice for future readers to understand a bit better
_why_ this is flaky, and why the fix is to the test suite and not to git
itself. I added this paragraph in between the two above:
The test is flaky because the sending fetch-pack may or may not have
finished writing its output by step (3). If it did, then we see a
closed pipe on the next read() call. If it didn't, then we get the
SIGPIPE from step (4) above. Both are fine, but the latter fools
test_must_fail.
