If you mean, in general, to catch the exit code of the first part of a pipe, you have to do something like this: status=`((cmd1; echo $? >&3) | cmd2) 3>&1` which is pretty ugly in itself, and if you want the stdout of cmd2, then you have to add even more redirection. I'm not sure it's worth it. -Peff - 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
