From 40c813e00c8de5725c7a6bb127fadedcce1f788f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Brad King Date: Fri, 8 Jan 2010 22:36:41 -0500 Subject: Handle relative paths in submodule .git files Commit 842abf0 (Teach resolve_gitlink_ref() about the .git file, 2008-02-20) taught resolve_gitlink_ref() to call read_gitfile_gently() to resolve .git files. In this commit teach read_gitfile_gently() to interpret a relative path in a .git file with respect to the file location. This change allows update-index to recognize a submodule that uses a relative path in its .git file. It previously failed because the relative path was wrongly interpreted with respect to the superproject directory.
