Maybe we should have "-C $DIR" simulate "--work-tree=$DIR --git=dir=$DIR/.git" ? > More generally, when "git -C there cmd arg1 arg2 arg3..." is run, how > should the implementation of cmd learn what to prefix arg$N with? I envisioned these two as equivalent: git -C $DIR something cd $DIR ; git something -- kevin brintnall =~ /kbrint@xxxxxxxxx/ -- 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
