I'd say that it's a bug that cg-diff doesn't work in a subdir. However, there is a much more important difference between cg-diff and git-diff: cg-diff is equivalent to git-diff HEAD because cogito hides the index from you.
That's what I wanted to know: if it was a deliberate behavior, a bug on my side, or on git's...
If you are developing in a (mostly) straight line, and not dealing much with merges and rebases, that's a great simplification. If you are coming from a different SCM it's probably a good thing too.
That's me and me !
If/when you want to use git's smarts for merging and rebasing, you'll definitely want to know a lot more about the index, and you'll probably stop using cogito.
That will be me some times...
(Actually, even though I know and love the index I use cogito all the time, and switch to git commands for merging and rebasing. Works great... and yet Linus is in a merge-centric role, so changing the defaults to ignore the index most of the time is a bit of a hot issue
That's no problem with me, if behavior is properly documented... -- Vincent Legoll - 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
