Having just copied that logic to one of my tools, I reaclly would have fount if useful to have something that, given a config file name tells you where it should be, maybe in the resident kitchen-sink that is rev-parse: $ git rev-parse --config git /home/dennis/.gitconfig $ git rev-parse --config gitk /home/dennis/.gitk $ git rev-parse --config foobar /home/dennis/.foobar Or, when XDG config files are used: $ git rev-parse --config gitk /home/dennis/.config/git/gitk $ git rev-parse --config git /home/dennis/.config/git/config $ git rev-parse --config foobar /home/dennis/.config/git/foobar So, ~/.$filename or $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/git/filename, with a special case only for git itself, with consistent selection of which to use (currently gitk and git are inconsistent). -- Dennis Kaarsemaker http://www.kaarsemaker.net -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
