Hello, git config --get issues an error message when the specified value contains a section that does not exist, but does not issue any message when the value contains a key that does not exist while in both cases returning a status 1. E.g. $ git config --get xxx error: key does not contain a section: xxx $ git config --get xxx.yyy Proposal: to issue an error message also when the key does not exist. -Angelo Borsotti -- 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
