We have this in ask_yes_no_if_possible(): if (!isatty(_fileno(stdin)) || !isatty(_fileno(stderr))) return 0; i.e., we answer "no" automatically without asking if at least one of stdin and stderr are not a terminal. Perhaps the OP's problem is that they do not redirect these channels to files or something in their automated scripts? In particular, it should be sufficient to redirect stdin from /dev/null (a.k.a. "nul" on Windows). -- Hannes -- -- *** Please reply-to-all at all times *** *** (do not pretend to know who is subscribed and who is not) *** *** Please avoid top-posting. *** The msysGit Wiki is here: https://github.com/msysgit/msysgit/wiki - Github accounts are free.
