Subject: [PATCH v4 6/6] Use the early config machinery to expand aliases
Date: Wed, 14 Jun 2017 13:36:00 +0200 (CEST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <b75481173390d70a64a1156421aaa0ec5aa4abc2.1497440104.git.johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1497440104.git.johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>
Instead of discovering the .git/ directory, reading the config and then
trying to painstakingly reset all the global state if we did not find a
matching alias, let's use the early config machinery instead.
It may look like unnecessary work to discover the .git/ directory in the
early config machinery and then call setup_git_directory_gently() in the
case of a shell alias, repeating the very same discovery *again*.
However, we have to do this as the early config machinery takes pains
*not* to touch any global state, while shell aliases expect a possibly
changed working directory and at least the GIT_PREFIX and GIT_DIR
variables to be set.
This change also fixes a known issue where Git tried to read the pager
config from an incorrect path in a subdirectory of a Git worktree if an
alias expanded to a shell command.
