Hi Maintainers,

Running git bugreport with an invalid CLI argument in a valid Git directory does not report error. Expected behaviour would be that it reports an error.

#Example git commands which should have reported an error but continues to succeed

cd $ToAnyDirectory
git bugreport diagnose
Thanks
Sheik
