When copying via g.copy and specifying --overwrite and the target object already exists, the return value is 1 but no error message is returned:
,---- | simASM:grassAnalysis> g.copy --overwrite region=region1,region2 | simASM:grassAnalysis> echo $? | 1 | simASM:grassAnalysis> g.version | GRASS 7.0.1 (2015) | simASM:grassAnalysis> `---- From http://tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/exit-status.html: ,---- | A successful command returns a 0, while an unsuccessful one returns a | non-zero value that usually can be interpreted as an error code. `---- So shouldn't the return value be 0 in this case, as the command did what it was told?
