I thought there was probably a sane reason for it. That is perfectly acceptable, but the problem still exists that there doesn't seem to be a good way to access the top of the working tree from within the GIT_DIR. Since I now know that post-receive has a CWD in .git, I could just use `pwd`/../ , but I was hoping for a better (read: consistent between hooks) solution. -JE - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
