git describe --dirty shows dirty when cwd not repo work directory.
Confirmed by osse on freenode irc #git
ubuntu@wrk:~/tmp$ pwd
/home/ubuntu/tmp
ubuntu@wrk:~/tmp$ git clone https://github.com/ipfs/go-ipfs.git
ubuntu@wrk:~/tmp$ GIT_DIR=/home/ubuntu/tmp/go-ipfs/.git
GIT_WORK_TREE=/home/ubuntu/tmp/go-ipfs git describe --dirty
v0.4.18-381-gca77ecc76-dirty
ubuntu@wrk:~/tmp$ cd go-ipfs
ubuntu@wrk:~/tmp/go-ipfs$ GIT_DIR=/home/ubuntu/tmp/go-ipfs/.git
GIT_WORK_TREE=/home/ubuntu/tmp/go-ipfs git describe --dirty
v0.4.18-381-gca77ecc76
workaround:
use -C arg instead of GIT_WORK_TREE
git -C /path/to/work/directory describe --dirty
v0.4.18-381-gca77ecc76
I tried to find the issue, but git's code isn't easy to grok in a few minutes.
Thanks to osse and gxt for their help!
