I think this "when we are not about to..." part of the comment is no longer true, given the second part of the hunk. > @@ -721,8 +721,10 @@ static const char *setup_discovered_git_dir(const char > *gitdir, > if (offset == cwd->len) > return NULL; > > - /* Make "offset" point to past the '/', and add a '/' at the end */ > - offset++; > + /* Make "offset" point past the '/' (already the case for root dirs) */ > + if (offset != offset_1st_component(cwd->buf)) > + offset++; Nice. I was worried we would have to have a hacky "well, sometimes we don't add one here..." code, but using offset_1st_component says exactly what we mean. > +/* Find GIT_DIR without changing the working directory or other global state > */ > extern const char *discover_git_directory(struct strbuf *gitdir); The parts that actually confused me were the parameters (mostly whether gitdir was a directory to start looking in, or an output parameter). So maybe: /* * Find GIT_DIR of the repository that contains the current working * directory, without changing the working directory or other global * state. The result is appended to gitdir. The return value is NULL * if no repository was found, or gitdir->buf otherwise. */ This looks good to me aside from those few comment nits. I'm still not sure I understand how ceil_offset works in setup_git_directory_gently_1(), but I don't think your patch actually changed it. I can live with my confusion. -Peff
