Hi Daniel,

Thanks for reviewing other two patches.

If drm-tip and $DIM_REPO are worktrees (more exactly "linked working
tree" - ie .git is a file), then rr_cache_dir will return invalid path.

As a result update_rerere_cache will fail create symlink, with this kind
of error:

    ln: failed to create symbolic link '/lab/dim/drm-misc-next/.git':
File exists

I still do not see who and when is using (ie. reading) this link.
rebuild_tip seems to use only $DIM_PREFIX/drm_rerere/rr-cache. Is there
some magic inside git itself, or I am just blind?


Regards

Andrzej
