[PATCH] use only the PATH for exec'ing git commands

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

 



We need to correctly set up PATH for non-c based git commands. Since we
already do this, we can just use that PATH and execvp, instead of looping
over the paths with execve.

This patch adds a setup_path() function to exec_cmd.c, which sets
the PATH order correctly for our search order. execv_git_cmd() is
stripped down to setting up argv and calling execvp(). git.c's main()
only only needs to call setup_path().
