My point is, what's so special about --git-dir? what about --work-tree, or "commit -F path"? It's hard to draw a line there. Config files are a special case, because git is the only one that reads the file. "~" expansion depends on shell setting. If users turn it off, they may be surprised that "~foo" is turned to /home/foo while they really mean "~foo". Warning is the only sensible thing we could do. -- Duy -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
