  EXIT STATUS
         The exit status gives some indication of whether a newer
         version was found or not; one is advised to read the output to
         determine exactly what happened and whether there were any
         warnings to be noted.

         0   Either --help or --version was used, or for some watch file
             which was examined, a newer upstream version was located.

         1   No newer upstream versions were located for any of the
             watch files examined.

It's been like this for years.
