From: Johannes Sixt Date: Tue, 13 Nov 2007 20:05:02 GMT Subject: [PATCH 07/11] builtin run_command: do not exit with -1. Message-ID: <1194984306-3181-8-git-send-email-johannes.sixt@telecom.at> In-Reply-To: <1194984306-3181-7-git-send-email-johannes.sixt@telecom.at> There are shells that do not correctly detect an exit code of -1 as a failure. We simply truncate the status code to the lower 8 bits.
