[PATCH 15/16] t4124: only mark git command with test_must_fail

<e55a07b6141308062ee0670f5909ee2f78f931eb.1577454401.git.liu.denton@gmail.com>

The test_must_fail function should only be used for git commands since we should assume that external commands work sanely. Since apply_patch wraps a sed and git invocation, rewrite it to accept an `!` argument which would cause only the git command to be prefixed with `test_must_fail`.
