Here is what I have right now, queued somewhere in 'pu', after fixing it up a bit. -- >8 -- From: Aleksander Boruch-Gruszecki <aleksander.boruchgruszecki@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Sun, 8 Feb 2015 17:53:53 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] merge-file: correctly open files when in a subdir run_setup_gently() is called before merge-file. This may result in changing current working directory, which wasn't taken into account when opening a file for writing. Fix by prepending the passed prefix. Previous var is left so that error messages keep referring to the file from the user's working directory perspective.
