With "root", I could replace that rev-parse call with "git root", but I'd keep typing $ cdup after doing so anyway. I am not sure how much value it adds. You would need to handle error cases like "you are not in a working tree", you cannot expect to be able to say $ cd "$(git root)" anyway. -- 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
