Do you mean "when we use pager"? But then we are writing into the pager, which the user can make it exit, which in turn causes us to write into the pipe, so I would expect that we would want to ignore SIGPIPE --- ah, then we explicitly catch error in xwrite() and say die() which we do not want. So you want to let SIGPIPE silently kill us when the pager is in use; is that it? -- 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
