Public bug reported:
This is not a bug, but a feature request.
At the moment it is not clear if run-one exited with return value 1 or
the command failed with return value 1, e.g.:
$ run-one bash -c 'sleep 5; exit 1'; echo $?
The return value will always be '1', but I want to know, if run-one
returned '1' or the command returned '1'.
One could try using a return value, which is unlikely to be used by
other commands.
But best would be a verbose option '-v' and if set, run-one sends this
'run-one: the command is already running, exiting' to stderr. And
possibly using '-v -v' also outputs the actual command that was skipped.
(Actually I think run-one should always send a message to stderr, if it
'fails', and one can use '-q' to make it silent.)
