If you mean "instead set it to "/" and things will work much better." I agree with the reasoning (not suggesting to reword---just trying to make sure I understood what you meant). > In prefix_path(), loosen the outside repo check a little bit.

The logic for the "are we inside?" check above sounds correct. When work_tree is at root, have "/" in it, and len inside the "if orig is absolute" block is 1, so memmove() strips out the leading '/' and makes the result relative to the root level. Am I reading the code right? > Not related to worktree, but also set gitdir correctly if a bare repo > is placed (insanely?) at root. Yuck, but looks correct. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
