Subject: [PATCH] When exec() fails include the failing command in the error message
Date: Tue,  6 Nov 2007 02:54:01 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1194346441-20292-1-git-send-email-ask@develooper.com> (raw)

git-svn occasionally fails with no details as to what went wrong - this should help debug those situations.
