how to stop retry on SIGINT

[40x]

I dont see a way to stop the retry on SIGINT? Right now we throw an exception throw new pRetry.AbortError(''); which isn't clean but something like operation.stop from the underlying library should help. Is this possible?

That is the best way to handle it. When you throw an AbortError, this package uses operation.stop internally:

p-retry/index.js

Lines 57 to 58 in 810f309

	if (error instanceof AbortError) {
	operation.stop();

This package cannot subscribe to SIGINT itself as that causes side-effects. So, it's up to you to handle SIGINT. We also have to reject the promise on AbortError, as otherwise the promise would be forever hanging, which is never what you want.

I'm open to ideas to improve this, but I don't see a way to make it better.
