execaSync() does not work but await execa() does

[felipecrs]

https://github.com/sindresorhus/execa is a great tool that simplifies command executions in Node. I'm trying to convert my applications to use Deno and I stumbled upon this issue.

// test.ts

import {execaSync, execa} from 'npm:execa@8.0.1';

let result = await execa('echo', ['unicorns async']);
console.log(result.stdout);

result = execaSync('echo', ['unicorns sync']);
console.log(result.stdout);

❯ deno run -A test.ts
unicorns async
error: Uncaught (in promise) Error: Command failed: echo unicorns sync

Just to update: the same problem still happens as of deno 1.38.0.

This should be fixed in Deno v1.38.1 later this week.
