bpo-43316: gzip: CLI uses non-zero return code on error.#24647
Conversation
Exit code is now 1 instead of 0. A message is printed to stderr instead of stdout. This is the proper behaviour for a tool that can be used in scripts.

Shouldn’t this use string concatenation or f-string to pass one argument to sys.exit?
Signature is sys.exit(status=None)

You are right! We can not pass two strings to sys.exit().
I don't know why this passed the test.

Now I got it. The stderr is:
Traceback (most recent call last):
(snip)
File "/Users/inada-n/work/python/cpython/Lib/gzip.py", line 586, in main
sys.exit("filename doesn't end in .gz:", repr(arg))
TypeError: exit expected at most 1 argument, got 2
And it passes the test self.assertIn(b"filename doesn't end in .gz:", err).

In my opinion this change should be backported to all currently supported versions of python. Exiting with 0 upon error is not acceptable behaviour for a tool. Luckily, I think the backport will be quite easy and I am happy to do it.
