Fred Cooke commented on MRELEASE-777:
-------------------------------------
Hi Mark! I saw those options, however IMO the clone concept is completely and
utterly broken. You already have the repo with a checkout, and the POM from
that, in order to even think about doing a release. You also already have the
entire history already already, because we're talking Git, not dinosaur stuff
;-) so if you want to do a clone at all, which is brain dead, even locally,
then you'd do it from the existing repo. If you don't want to do a clone, and I
assure you, you definitely do not ever want to do that, then you simply set
GIT_DIR and GIT_WORK_TREE and do a checkout of a hash. Simple as that. Long
time no see, too :-)
