Subject: [PATCH 6/7] Revert "Documentation: always respect core.worktree if set"
Date: Thu, 11 Nov 2010 21:20:47 +0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1289485248-8966-7-git-send-email-pclouds@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1289485248-8966-1-git-send-email-pclouds@gmail.com>
This reverts commit f5e025a9d5b35e24768475f6890b836ce0d5ed15.
The commit reflected what the code did. But the code did that because
it had bugs.
