[PATCH v3 3/8] scalar-[un]register: clearly indicate source of error

From
Victoria Dye via GitGitGadget <gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
Date
Aug 18, 2022, 21:40 UTC
Message-ID
<aea8723e7181e99437f880f5d1578078e3fd350c.1660858853.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
In-Reply-To
<pull.1324.v3.git.1660858853.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
From: Victoria Dye <vdye@github.com>

When a step in 'register_dir()' or 'unregister_dir()' fails, indicate which step failed with an error message, rather than silently assigning a nonzero return code.
