Subject: [PATCH v2 1/5] worktree repair: align .git file handling with repair_gitfile()
Date: Wed, 14 Oct 2026 21:20:32 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <21b2878aa552a931788aa7bb14720b24e7809c75.1792012836.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <pull.2225.v2.git.1792012836.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
From: Yoichi NAKAYAMA <yoichi.nakayama@gmail.com>
Use read_gitfile_raw() instead of read_gitfile_gently() in
repair_worktree_at_path(), moving path resolution and repository
validation to the caller. This makes .git file handling consistent
with repair_gitfile() and avoids using the non-reentrant
read_gitfile_gently().
A subsequent commit will update infer_backlink() to use
read_gitfile_raw() as well.
