In this and the below tests which had a similar transformation, the
first invocation does not mask its error, since it's on the right-hand
side of a pipe.

But piping "git show" to sed will mask the exit code of the former. So
that makes sense. But I would like to see us avoid an unnecessary
cat-into-pipe and instead redirect out into sed, like "sed -n -e ...
<out".

Thanks,
Taylor
