parent_GIT_INDEX_OUTPUT: allow plumbing to output to an alternative index file. (diff)
downloadtgif-5e7f56ac33f7a5583f9fa4e0b6088709fea7a6f8.tar.xz
git-read-tree --index-output=<file>
This corrects the interface mistake of the previous one, and gives a command line parameter to the only plumbing command that currently needs it: "git-read-tree". We can add the calls to set_alternate_index_output() to other plumbing commands that update the index if/when needed. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
