It would have to be refactored to take any > number of arguments, instead of the two it takes here. gitdir already takes an arbitrary number of arguments and joins them to a path. The more imminent challenge is, that gitdir caches the GIT_DIR, thus it tries to avoid calling "git rev-parse". Which works for most, but not for hooks. We could either maintain a blacklist, for what we cache the result too, or always call "git rev-parse --git-dir". This blacklist would need to be in sync with the one in Git's path.c::adjust_git_path() than. Bert > > Other than that, looks good. Thanks. > > -- > Regards, > Pratyush Yadav
