[PATCH] Make Git accept absolute path names for files within the work tree

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

 



This patch makes it possible to drag files and directories from
a graphical browser and drop them onto a shell and feed them
to common git operations without editing away the path to the
root of the work tree.

I will not surrender to the fierce competion on this subject. Here is an update
with hopefully correct test cases this time. (Linus. your code did not pass). Like Linus,
this code does not resolve symlinks, but I forgot to state that it is by design. It
solves my problem and happens to solve Anatols problem (actually the same since
passing absolute file names to blame is my most important use case).
