[PATCH v3 09/11] dir: simplify untracked cache "ident" field

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



It is not a good idea to compare kernel versions and disable
the untracked cache if it changes as people may upgrade and
still want the untracked cache to work. So let's just
compare work tree locations to decide if we should disable
it.

Also it's not useful to store many locations in the ident
field and compare to any of them. It can even be dangerous
if GIT_WORK_TREE is used with different values. So let's
just store one location, the location of the current work
tree.

If this location changed and we still want an untracked
cache, let's delete the cache and recreate it.
