A couple of patches to document and test that hooks are run from the top-level directory and that GIT_PREFIX is set to the subdirectory that Git was run from (like !aliases). The new documentation is mostly lifted from the documentation for alias.*. I don't think the new documentation is perfectly clear, but it's a start. In particular, what does Git do for hook pwd and GIT_PREFIX when it is run from within a bare repository? Or from within .git? Or if GIT_WORK_TREE (--work-tree) and/or GIT_DIR (--git-dir) are set? Many of these same questions apply to !aliases, so the documentation for alias.* should also be shored up. -Richard Richard Hansen (2): Documentation/githooks: mention pwd, $GIT_PREFIX t1020-subdirectory.sh: check hook pwd, $GIT_PREFIX Documentation/githooks.txt | 6 ++++++ t/t1020-subdirectory.sh | 34 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 2 files changed, 40 insertions(+) -- 2.2.1 -- 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
