Hi, when using a submodule "sm", there is a relative worktree in its config: .git/modules/sm/config: [core] worktree = ../../../smworktree git-new-worktree (from contrib) symlinks this config the new worktree. From inside the new worktree, git reads the config, but resolves the relative worktree setting based on the symlink's location. A fix would be to resolve any relative worktree setting based on the symlink target's location (the actual config file), and not from the symlink. This is with git version 1.8.5.3. Please consider fixing this. (I know about various workarounds, e.g. copying and adjusting "config" or manually setting $GIT_WORK_TREE; more relevant discussion would be at http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/196019) Thanks, Daniel. -- http://daniel.hahler.de/
