Subject: [PATCH] git-gui (Win): make starting via "Git GUI Here" on .git/ possible
Date: Wed, 1 Apr 2009 01:55:39 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200904010155.39957.markus.heidelberg@web.de> (raw)


This works around git-gui's error message

    Cannot use funny .git directory: .

when started from the .git/ directory, which is useful in repositories
without any directories for the right click.

Now git-gui can be started via Windows Explorer shell extension (Git GUI
Here) from the .git/ directory.
