Is there a way to create a path, without being using git_path?
git_path seems to imply adding .git.
So if I have
packdir = xstrdup(git_path("pack"));
...
path = git_path("%s/%s", packdir, filename)
This produces something as:
.git/.git/objects/pack/.tmp-13199-pack-c59c5758ef159b272f6ab10cb9fadee443966e71.idx
definitely having one .git too much.
Also interesting to add would be that git_path operates in the
.git/objects directory?
Thanks,
Stefan
