Actually it *is* wrong. -- >8 -- Subject: [PATCH] config: flip return value of write_section() d9bd4cbb9cc (config: flip return value of store_write_*()) made write_section() follow the convention of write(2) to return -1 on error and the number of written bytes on success. 3b48045c6c7 (Merge branch 'sd/branch-copy') changed it back to returning 0 on error and 1 on success, but left its callers still checking for negative values. Let write_section() follow the convention of write(2) again to meet the expectations of its callers.
