But we do not return 0:
 $ GIT_PAGER=/is/not/there git log
 $ echo $?
 141
That's SIGPIPE, just as I would expect.
And with this change
diff --git a/pager.c b/pager.c
index dac358f..86519cc 100644
--- a/pager.c
+++ b/pager.c
@@ -89,9 +89,6 @@ void setup_pager(void)
 		static const char *env[] = { "LESS=FRSX", NULL };
 		pager_process.env = env;
 	}
-#ifndef WIN32
-	pager_process.preexec_cb = pager_preexec;
-#endif
 	if (start_command(&pager_process))
 	return;


I get:

 $ GIT_PAGER=/is/not/there ./git log -1 --oneline
 error: cannot run /is/not/there: No such file or directory
