There was a problem hiding this comment.
Unsure if it's best to assume the cmd supports this, or whether it's better to hoist it up into the caller's strings for each command. Let me know...
Some paths have characters which make them ambiguous as to whether they're a path or argument
For example,
$ git log --follow --find-renames=40% --reverse a/b-c-d/e.txt
fatal: ambiguous argument 'a/b-c-d/e.txt': unknown revision or path not in the working tree.
Use '--' to separate paths from revisions, like this:
'git <command> [<revision>...] -- [<file>...]'
$ echo $?
128
compared to
$ git log --follow --find-renames=40% --reverse -- a/b-c-d/e.txt
$ echo $?
0
