There's no way git-prompt.sh can be sourced without modifications to
the script, unless you expect it would always be named
'.git-prompt.sh' and would be on the same directory, which many
distributions would frown upon.

So, again, seems like a good argument for building a git-gitdir into git
proper. Maybe there are other utilities that could make use of it as
well...

You mean a real git command, which does the same as __gitdir()?  I
don't like that, because it will always require 2 fork()s and an
exec() and would be slow on Windows.


Best,
