Description

I configured a GitLab scanning task using TruffleHog. Within GitLab, there's a CI/CD Settings parameter called "Git shallow clone" When this parameter is set to 20, the "trufflehog git" command triggers an error scanning repository, yet it does not result in a non-zero exit code, which appears to be somewhat unusual.

Preferred Solution

Trufflehog should exit with a non-zero code on "error scanning repository"

Additional Context

To reproduce, just run: docker run -it trufflesecurity/trufflehog:3.59.0 git file://. && echo $?
