Re: [PATCH 1/2] relative_path should honor dos_drive_prefix

2013/9/13 Junio C Hamano [off-list ref]:

For systems that need POSIX escape hatch for Apollo Domain ;-), we
would need a bit more work.  When both path1 and path2 begin with a
double-dash, we would need to check if they match up to the next
slash, so that

 - //host1/usr/src and //host1/usr/lib share the same root and the
   former can be made to ../src relative to the latter;

 - //host1/usr/src and //host2/usr/lib are of separate roots.

or something.

But how could we know which platform supports network pathnames and
needs such implementation.
