Re: git-bisect: weird usage of read(1)

I found this in git bisect:

              printf >&2 'Are you sure [Y/n]? '
              case "$(read yesno)" in [Nn]*) exit 1 ;; esac

which looks very weird since read(1) returns a status and not the
string reads from std input.

Good catch.  You need to press Ctrl-C in order to exit, answering "no"
means the same as "yes" here -- not very nice.  Care to send a patch?

Thanks,
