Documenting it won't help. If you get 126 code, you won't know if user returned it to mark the code as bad, or if bash returned it to say that it can't execute a command. Of course if changing the meaning is out of option it's better to document then not to document. -- Piotr Krukowiecki -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
