2007-05-29 | Allow contrib new-workdir to link into bare repositories | Shawn O. Pearce | 1 | -5/+7 | |
On one particular system I like to keep a cluster of bare Git repositories and spawn new-workdirs off of them. Since the bare repositories don't have working directories associated with them they don't have a .git/ subdirectory that hosts the repository we are linking to. Using a bare repository as the backing repository for a workdir created by this script does require that the user delete core.bare from the repository's configuration file, so that Git auto-senses the bareness of a repository based on pathname information, and not based on the config file.

2007-03-31 | contrib/workdir: add a simple script to create a working directory | Julian Phillips | 1 | -0/+57 | |
Add a simple script to create a working directory that uses symlinks to point at an exisiting repository. This allows having different branches in different working directories but all from the same repository. Based on a description from Junio of how he creates multiple working directories[1]. With the following caveat: "This risks confusion for an uninitiated if you update a ref that is checked out in another working tree, but modulo that caveat it works reasonably well."
