and people who have been learning from the scripts (we used to have lot more scripts) would have picked up that pattern. That's why I already told you that --exit-status is the right thing to do if we were doing it from scratch, but is a wrong thing to do at this point. Maybe in a release as big as 1.5.0 that we pre-announce a lot of interface changes.
This is something I don't understand: why is a new option --exit-code wrong? Noone uses it yet and the default exit code is at it was before (modulo the bug with diff-tree).
