The improved error handling catches a bug in filter-branch when using -d pointing to a path outside any git repository: $ mkdir foo $ cd foo $ git init $ touch bar $ git add bar $ git commit -m bar $ cd .. $ git clone --bare foo $ cd foo.git $ git filter-branch -d /tmp/filter master fatal: Not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git This error message comes from git for-each-ref in line 224. GIT_DIR is set correctly by git-sh-setup (to the foo.git repository), but not exported (yet).
Ops, forgot the Signed-off-by: Lars Noschinski <lars@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Feel free to add it. I can also resend the patch. - Lars -- 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
