[PATCH v3 10/15] bisect--helper: return only correct exit codes in `cmd_*()`

From

Message-ID
<1236a7319033a67befe34ed892db0eb5200490fd.1653144546.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
In-Reply-To
<pull.1132.v3.git.1653144546.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
From: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>
Exit codes cannot be negative, but `error()` returns -1.

Let's just go with the common pattern and call `die()` in `cmd_bisect__helper()` when incorrect arguments were detected.
