Well, if git-gui is designed to interoperate with CLI git (and I think that is a sensible thing to aim for), we probably should revisit the list of hooks in hooks.txt and make sure we define the environment these hooks are invoked in precisely enough (this incidentally will help C rewrite effort to avoid regressing). Then, hooks that take input from and give output to the user could be launched with I/O redirected to talk with wish (which I presume has a terminal lookalike widget you can embed in your application). -- 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
