[PATCH] get_sha1: support relative path "<obj>:<sth>" syntax

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Currently :path and ref:path can be used to refer to a specific object
in index or ref respectively. "path" component is absolute path. This
patch allows "path" to be written as "./path" or "../path", which is
relative to user's original cwd.

This does not work in commands that startup_info is NULL
(i.e. non-builtin ones).

 I feel the urge of keeping ':./path' and ':../path' out of this
 competition.

 The idea is old although I don't remember if anybody has made any
 attempt to realize it: use './' and '../' to specify the given path
 is relative, not absolute.

 I don't remember either if the idea was rejected or nobody bothered
 to implement it. Anyway, here it is (for demostration only because it
 needs two minor patches to work). Comments?
