I also tried running it from completely outside the repo: dennis@lightning:~$ code/git/git --git-dir=code/git/.foo --work-tree=code/git status On branch master nothing to commit, working directory clean dennis@lightning:~$ code/git/git --git-dir=/home/dennis/code/git/.foo --work-tree=code/git status On branch master nothing to commit, working directory clean -- Dennis Kaarsemaker www.kaarsemaker.net -- 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
