Worktree vs. working copy

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

 



Hello,

I've noticed that in some places in git.git, the term 'working copy' is
used. Mostly it's in git-cvsserver which I guess it's fine, but the
git-config man page talks about the 'working copy' in three places.

    $ git grep 'worktree' | wc -l
    412
    $ git grep 'working copy' | grep -v ^git-cvsserver |  wc -l
    32

Most of the references to a 'working copy' are in Git.pm, and the
git-gui glossary treats them as the same thing.

Is there some sort of official position, or rough agreement that we
should use woktree instead of working copy? The latter term IMHO implies
a centralised system, where an user gets a copy.
