[rancid] mtrancid +- connection closed? Conf Diff

Hello friends,

Just have a question regarding mtrancid
For some reason I have been getting router config diffs emails which
contain only +- connection close, which doesn't reflect a config change and
is strange.

This only occurs on 1-2 devices

Rancid 3.6.1
=====================================
Sample

Revision 100
- Connection to <myrouter> closed.

=====================================

Revision 98

+ Connection to <myrouter> closed.


=====================================

Mtrancid consists of
systempackageprintdetail
systemrouterboardprint
export

It seems that mtrancid is picking up the SSH session close
Logs do not show any errors which means its reaching the end of run and has
a clean exit right?

I am able to run all these commands with no problem and rancid-run gives me
no errors/hiccups.
Execution is smooth and does not have any delays (<1minute)

If there was a problem, the end-of-run detection would pick it up?

Just going through the script and I can’t seem to identify where/why this
would get picked up.
I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this before. I could always
filter out the "connection closed" but I am curious why this is happening.

Many thanks
J
