Re: Incorrect git-blame result if I use full path to file

Hi,

On Mon, 3 Dec 2007, Linus Torvalds wrote:

It [the patch] makes "get_pathspec()" make all the paths it returns 
relative, if it can. HOWEVER! I think it should actually die() if it 
sees an absolute path that it cannot convert (because it really cannot 
do anything sane about it), but I commented that out for now because 
that requires some test case change: right now we actually have a few 
test cases for insane filename arguments, and they expect the old 
behaviour.

I have the slight suspicion that this could break diff --no-index.  And it 
does not contain any symlink resolution, right?

Ciao,
