That's not documented anywhere. I mean, git is plubming, right? I should be able to call it myrepo.exe if I like, and as long as it has a .git dir with stuff in it, or is bare, it should just work. > > If I give people a git:// url, they already know it's a Git repo, I > > figure. > > So you must use "--git-dir" _everytime_ you are working with Git inside > the repo. That's not been my experience. In fact, I can 'git log' quite happily inside a bare repo. Why on earth should git-relink care what I have named my repo? It's not like git clone, push, pull, or anything else cares. -- John -- 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
