Not that I can see: [torvalds@g5 ~]$ git --version git version 1.0.6-g58e3 [torvalds@g5 ~]$ git hjsdhjas > /dev/null [torvalds@g5 ~]$ echo $? 1 so yes, it returns a proper error, and it outputs the help message to stdout, not stderr. Which is fine, because it means that you can indeed do git help | less and it will do the right thing (apart from printing the line git: 'help' is not a git-command which is a bit sad).
