The "git-diff" man page documents this under the --exit-code option.  
It probably would be nice to have an "EXIT STATUS" section added to  
the man pages of those commands for which it would be interesting  
(like "git-diff") and perhaps to the main "git" man page as well (with  
general info).

If there is interest in this I'll whip up a doc patch.
