I have an alias for the git-new-workdir script and I'm tracking some config files in my home directory, but also have a bunch of Git repositories in subdirectories. A "cd ..; git new-workdir old new" in one of these tells me that "old" doesn't exist (because it doesn't exist in my home dir which the alias ends up being invoked from) while a "git new-workdir . ../new" works as expected. -- 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
