When we expect a checkout operation to fail, but it succeeds, we
actually do not want to see the error messages that were generated in
the meantime for errors that were handled gracefully by the code (e.g.
when an object could not be found in a pack: in this case, the next
backend would have been given a chance to look up the object, and
probably would have found it because the checkout succeeded, after all).

Which means that in the specific case of `cl_git_fail()`, we actually
want to clear the global error state _after_ evaluating the command: we
know that any still-available error would be bogus, seeing as the
command succeeded (unexpectedly).
