From 58fa2c401856f93712ae6cc45d4dc3458ee4b4f4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001

Subject: git.py: add support for git.foo( with_status=True )

Passing with_status to an arbitrary git command causes execute
to return (status_code, output) instead of the typical
returned output.

This is useful when callers need access to the exit status code.
