[PATCH v2 30/31] mailinfo: remove calls to exit() and die() deep in the callchain

From
Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
Date
Oct 14, 2015, 20:45 UTC
Message-ID
<1444855557-2127-31-git-send-email-gitster@pobox.com>
In-Reply-To
<1444855557-2127-1-git-send-email-gitster@pobox.com>

The top-level mailinfo() would instead punt when the code in the deeper part of the callchain detects an unrecoverable error in the input.
