From b44ebb19e3234c5dffe9869ceac5408bb44c2e20 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Lars Hjemli Date: Wed, 20 Feb 2008 23:13:13 +0100 Subject: Add platform-independent .git "symlink" This patch allows .git to be a regular textfile containing the path of the real git directory (prefixed with "gitdir: "), which can be useful on platforms lacking support for real symlinks.
