I think that is fine for now. One other simple possibility would be to expand _just_ $HOME, and then if we later decided to do all environment variables it would naturally encompass that. However, we might want to support "~" then anyway, so I think doing "~" first is fine. However, there are two problems with the patch: 1. It should probably re-use path.c:user_path, as Johannes mentioned. 2. There is no documentation update. Also, are there any other config variables which would benefit from this substitution (I can't think of any off-hand, but there are quite a few I don't use). -Peff -- 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
