[PATCH] bisect: print an error message when "git rev-list --bisect-vars" fails

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Before this patch no error was printed when "git rev-list --bisect-vars"
failed. This can happen when bad and good revs are mistaken.

This patch prints an error message on stderr that describe the likely
failure cause.
