From 2b52123fcf840686b69e10807fd0f985ec4167f3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Aguilar Date: Sun, 26 Oct 2014 18:15:42 -0700 Subject: difftool: add support for --trust-exit-code Teach difftool to exit when a diff tool returns a non-zero exit code when either --trust-exit-code is specified or difftool.trustExitCode is true. Forward exit codes from invoked diff tools to the caller when --trust-exit-code is used.
