Also the "relative to $GIT_DIR" may be confusing. If $GIT_DIR points to a file that points to a true repo, then to which one it is relative?Despite the fact that I doubt the usefulness of an .git file at all, it IMHO should be interpreted as an kind of userland symlink.I do find .git file useful. I put my worktree in a server where it can be wiped out completely. So I don't want to put my .git there. .git file can be used this case so I don't have to set GIT_DIR/GIT_WORK_TREE every time and my .git is safe elsewhere.
Why not using a symlink here ? cu -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Enrico Weigelt, metux IT service -- http://www.metux.de/ phone: +49 36207 519931 email: weigelt@metux.de mobile: +49 151 27565287 icq: 210169427 skype: nekrad666 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Embedded-Linux / Portierung / Opensource-QM / Verteilte Systeme ----------------------------------------------------------------------
