How about I update CodingGuidelines according to the rules you suggested?

I like it, your approach combines the atomicity of my first patch with the efficiency of not calling ls-files twice. I was hesitant to change to much code just to get the exit code right, but your approach looks good to me. Should I send an updated patch? Or do you just want to squash this in.
