The real reason you want the new GIT_PREFIX for alias/hooks is otherwise they would not have a way to even say --show-prefix to figure it out themselves. >> Overall I think it's a good change, btw.

As long as there is a way for a script to figure it out when it wants to know, I think it should be Ok. Isn't it just the matter of reading --show-prefix and comparing it with what came in $GIT_PREFIX? -- 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
