Pass result of a Pipeline/Task execution via exit code

[keskad]

Hi, is it intentional that the started and observed (using --showlog) Task/Pipeline does not have passed a result as an exit code to the shell?

Example: tkn pipeline run ... -> Pipeline fails -> exit 1 tkn pipeline run ... -> Pipeline succeds -> exit 0

What about implementing a commandline switch e.g. --pass-result-as-exitcode to not introduce a BC but allow to return the exit code when using --showlog?

@tektoncd/cli-maintainers IMHO, if we are passing a specific flag to get the exit code that should be fine. Please feel free to comment suggest on this.

@keskad I gave up debating which flags or commands to implement and wrote an extension addressing exactly this :-D
