Test: catch if trash cannot be removed

gitster · gitster · commit 8d14ac945403 · 2008-03-18T22:17:22.000-07:00
When your test creates an unwritable directory that test framework cannot
clean out by "rm -fr trash", later tests cannot start in a fresh state
they expect to.  Detect this and error out early.
