The first hunk is what you wrote but only inside MERGE_RR block, and the second hunk deals with converting end-user supplied paths that are relative to the original relative to the top-level. The tweaking of $orderfile you have in the first hunk may have to be tightened mimicking the way how "eval ... --sq ... ; shift" is used in the second hunk to avoid confusion in case orderfile specified by the end user happens to be the same as a valid revname (e.g. "master").And here is a squash-able patch to illustrate what I mean.
Thanks for this; I'll cook up a reroll.I tried this approach before I emailed the v3 reroll, except I left out the "--" argument to rev-parse. This caused the tests to fail due to "ambiguous argument: unknown revision or path not in the working tree". I didn't think to add the "--" because I got it in my head that "--" shouldn't be used with --prefix because it shows up in the output, plus the example in the rev-parse documentation doesn't use it. I'll patch rev-parse's man page to use "--" in the example.
Thanks, Richard
I removed both of the comment blocks as the code always works with
the worktree-relative pathname after this patch while adjusting
end-user supplied paths from relative to original cwd. As that is
how the core parts of the system (including the parts written in C)
work, even though an explanation you did in the log message is
needed to explain why the change was needed and what the change
intended to do to readers of "git log", it is not necessary to
explain it to the readers of the latest code, which is what the
in-code comment is about.
The single-liner addition to the test creates a branch whose name is
the same as the specified orderfile to deliberately create a
confusing situation. I haven't tried, but I am fairly sure that the
test will demonstrate how broken the orderfile=$(...) in the
original is, if you apply the test part of the attached patch,
without the changes to git-mergetool.sh, to your version.
