Previously, the CWD was just left at the top-level, right? Therefore, I assume that the commands all already took precautions to ensure that they operate on the right subdir, e.g. by setting GIT_DIR. It'll be trivial to chdir() back to the previous WD. I don't even think we need to check for its existence or handle an error, because the previous WD will always be a parent of the CWD. However, in my tests, this was not necessary. Hence I left it out. Or am I not seeing all the corner cases here? -- .''`. martin f. krafft <madduck@d.o> @martinkrafft : :' : proud Debian developer `. `'` http://people.debian.org/~madduck `- Debian - when you have better things to do than fixing systems consciousness: that annoying time between naps.
