如何将错误从grunt-contrib-sass传播到grunt-contrib-watch？

Question

My grunt-contrib-sass will stop on compilation error with a traceback when I run grunt sass , but not when sass is triggered via grunt-contrib-watch .

    sass: {
        development: {
            options: {
                style: 'expanded'
            },
            files: [
                {
                    expand: true,
                    cwd: '<%= paths.development %>stylesheets/',
                    src: ['*.scss', '*.sass'],
                    dest: '<%= paths.development %>assets/',
                    ext: '.css.liquid'
                },
            ]
        },


    watch: {
        sass: {
            files: [
                '<%= paths.development %>stylesheets/*{.sass,.*scss}'
            ],
            tasks: ['sass:development']  // this swallows errors
        },

I can't seem to find any information on how to prevent this from happening in the grunt-contrib-sass or grunt-contrib-watch documentation. There is no error propagation option. What am I missing?

I have not had this problem on 5+ other previous grunt based projects with similar watch->sass setups and am curious what the internet thinks.

Without any error message it cant be hard to determine how to solve your problem. What does grunt sass -v tell you?

Also I've had a similar problem in the past, tho I don't recall the actual error message. I solved the problem by using grunt-sass instead of grunt-contrib-sass .
