Andrei Pozolotin commented on SCM-709: -------------------------------------- I took a look. few ideas: 1) "/" feels like a hack; who guarantees its presence ? 2) could you differentiate via all of: File.exists() File.isFile() File.isDirectory() ? 3) "/" probably should be File.separator ? 4) need File.getCanonicalFile() to guard against symlinks ? 5) need File.getAbsolutePath() to actually render File.separator suffix ? 6) only one of oldFilePath or newFilePath is actually present on file system for File.exists() to work, could be logic error in :: if ( status == ScmFileStatus.RENAMED ) {} :: block, if treating both same way ? 7) if original issue is path/file overlap, may be should detect specifically only that? > REGRESSION: git status doesn't work if repository root is not the working > directory > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SCM-709 > URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/SCM-709 > Project: Maven SCM > Issue Type: Bug > Components: maven-scm-provider-git > Affects Versions: 1.8, 1.8.1 > Reporter: Robert Scholte > Assignee: Robert Scholte > Priority: Blocker > > SCM-686 introduced the {{--porcelain}} option to make the {{status}} result > language independend. > Without the {{--porcelain}} option files were listed relative to the working > directory, but with {{--porcelain}} files are listed relative to the > repository root. In most cases these are the same, but not always. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
