[PATCH 5/9] Add set_git_dir() function

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

 



With the function set_git_dir() you can reset the path that will
be used for git_path(), git_dir() and friends.

The responsibility to close files and throw away information from the
old git_dir lies with the caller.
