No commit log message? Justification?
Justification: adding absolute paths was not caught properly on Windows,
and this was the easiest patch.
However, IIRC, in the meantime we are nice to the user, and allow absolute
paths (which we turn into a relative path, or error out if it is not under
the current working directory).
Steffen, can you revert the patch and verify that my memory does not fail
me?
Ciao,

Is
git add /c/msysgit/git/read-cache.c
an appropriate test?
It fails with
error: 'c:/msysgit/git/read-cache.c' is outside repository
no matter if the commit is reverted or not.

Yes, that is enough. It proves that the patch 11/12 is unnecessary and
should be removed from 4msysgit.git.
Thanks,
