You would also need to undo git repo setup, i.e. resetting static variables in environment.c and setup.c, maybe some more. Also fork() is not available on Windows. Spawning new processes is the only feasible way I can think of now (or even in the next year). >>> + Â Â Â const char *git_dir; >>> + Â Â Â int hit = 0; >>> + Â Â Â memset(&cp, 0, sizeof(cp)); >>> + >>> + Â Â Â strbuf_addf(&buf, "%s/.git", path); >>> + Â Â Â git_dir = read_gitfile_gently(buf.buf); >>> + Â Â Â if (!git_dir) >>> + Â Â Â Â Â Â Â git_dir = buf.buf; >>> + Â Â Â if (!is_directory(git_dir)) >>> + Â Â Â Â Â Â Â goto out_free; >>> + >>> + Â Â Â setenv("GIT_SUPER_REFNAME", tree_name, 1); >>> + Â Â Â setenv(GIT_DIR_ENVIRONMENT, git_dir, 1); >>> + Â Â Â setenv(GIT_WORK_TREE_ENVIRONMENT, path, 1); >> >> cp.env can be used to set these variables >> > I was struggling a little with how to do this.

Old variables can also be unset by saying "VARIABLE=" in cp.env. The final env var set will be used for new process. Current env vars are untouched. Something like this should work: const char *env[4]; env[0] = malloc_sprintf("GIT_SUPER_REFNAME=%s", tree_name); env[1] = malloc_sprintf("GIT_DIR_ENVIRONMENT=%s", git_dir); env[2] = malloc_sprintf("GIT_WORK_TREE+ENVIRONMENT=%s", path); env[3] = NULL; cp.env = env; >>> + Â Â Â cp.argv = argv; >>> + Â Â Â cp.git_cmd = 1; >>> + Â Â Â cp.no_stdin = 1; >> >> I think you stll need "cp.dir = path;" here because the setup routines >> won't do that for you.

Which foils the cwd to worktree detection (at > least in V1 of that patch). Right. I forgot that. But then when new grep is run, it should move back to worktree. I believe current grep code assumes that cwd is worktree root. -- Duy -- 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
