Status numbers on Windows are usually represented in hexadecimal notation. This applies that for all large exit status values (above
UInt16::MAX
, inspired from https://cs.opensource.google/go/go/+/refs/tags/go1.23.4:src/os/exec_posix.go;l=117-121).This again improves usability because it's easier to interpret unknown status values and compare them with listings sharing the typical number format.
In #15283 we already changed
Status#to_s
to print the name of known values. But not all status codes are named.Follow-up on #15267
