Exit Code
---------

If any errors occurred during the command, rclone with an exit code of
`1`. This allows scripts to detect when rclone operations have failed.
If any errors occurred during the command, rclone will exit with a
non-zero exit code. This allows scripts to detect when rclone
operations have failed.

During the startup phase rclone will exit immediately if an error is
detected in the configuration. There will always be a log message
immediately before exiting.

When rclone is running it will accumulate errors as it goes along, and
only exit with an non-zero exit code if (after retries) there were no
transfers with errors remaining. For every error counted there will
be a high priority log message (visibile with `-q`) showing the
message and which file caused the problem. A high priority message is
also shown when starting a retry so the user can see that any previous
error messages may not be valid after the retry. If rclone has done a
retry it will log a high priority message if the retry was successful.
