Or maybe even better: set a variable "ret" and at the end of 
cmd_config(), "return !!ret;"?

Huh? So git commands don't return negative error values?

AFAICT an exit status is supposed to be between 0 and 127.

Are you two talking about the return value from cmd_config()?

git.c::run_builtin() already knows what to do with status codes from the
builtins to protect you from (rare) shells that do not cope with a
negative return that come from the common pattern of doing:

	return error("it is wrong in this way")

So "negative" is not really a problem.

Ooops.  I missed that.
