Public bug reported: I have a "super-repository" tradr-simulation which contains several subfolders. I wanted to share some of the subfolders through another Git repository, so I created an "external subrepository" - the .git resides above tradr-simulation in the filesystem, and in its config I've set core.worktree to point to tradr-simulation (particularly worktree = ../../../tradr-ws/src/tradr-simulation ).
Now here's what's shown in CLI (CWD is the "external subrepo"): -------------- D:\Programování\tradr-git\non-tradr-share\robot-model>git log fatal: bad default revision 'HEAD' D:\Programování\tradr-git\non-tradr-share\robot-model>git status On branch master Initial commit Untracked files: (use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed) .gitignore README gazebo-test/ nifti_robot_description/ nifti_robot_gazebo/ vrep_ugv_simulation/ nothing added to commit but untracked files present (use "git add" to track) ------------- However, if I start Git GUI from the "external subrepo", it is somehow misled to think I wanted it to show the "super-repository". In the screenshot attached, you can see how Git GUI looks when called as: D:\Programování\tradr-git\non-tradr-share\robot-model>git gui The window title as well as the Unstaged changes correspond to those of the "super-repo", even though I started Git GUI from the "external subrepo" directory. ** Affects: git (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Attachment added: "Git GUI called from the "external subrepo" directory with wrong interpretation of core.worktree" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1336230/+attachment/4142967/+files/Clipboard01.jpg -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1336230 Title: core.worktree misinterpreted by Git GUI To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/git/+bug/1336230/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
