GIT_PREFIX was added in 7cf16a14f5c070f7b14cf28023769450133172ae so that aliases can know the directory from which a !alias was called. Knowing the prefix relative to the root is helpful in other programs so export it to built-ins as well. Signed-off-by: David Aguilar <davvid@xxxxxxxxx> --- The original version of this patch did not set GIT_PREFIX to an empty string when prefix returns NULL.
