[PATCH v8 10/11] convert: make apply_filter() adhere to standard Git error handling

From: <hidden>
Date: 2016-09-20 19:03:17
Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

From: Lars Schneider <redacted>

apply_filter() returns a boolean that tells the caller if it
"did convert or did not convert". The variable `ret` was used throughout
the function to track errors whereas `1` denoted success and `0`
failure. This is unusual for the Git source where `0` denotes success.

Rename the variable and flip its value to make the function easier
readable for Git developers.
