[Borgbackup] Can different error codes of individual files be mapped to different results?

I disagree and I won't implement any tedious returncode tweaking mapping 
mechanism to solve:

- stuff that can be done by a borg wrapper or borg log analyzer

- bugs in other software, like sshfs suddenly getting empty instead of 
yielding errors (which seems to be your root problem)


borg's return codes are simply:

- 0 (all OK)

- 1 (warning - you have to look yourself whether they are serious or not 
[often it is an issue with one or a few files], the backup reached its 
normal end)

- 2 (error - usually some sudden fatal error and the backup did not 
complete to its end)


if you're unhappy with that, write a borg wrapper.
