Subject: [PATCH] Print RUNTIME_PREFIX warning only when GIT_TRACE is set
Date: Tue, 23 Feb 2010 12:42:56 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4B83BF40.4070802@viscovery.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <alpine.DEB.1.00.1002231201260.3980@intel-tinevez-2-302>
From: Johannes Sixt <j6t@kdbg.org>
When RUNTIME_PREFIX is enabled, the installation prefix is derived by
trying a limited set of known locations where the git executable can
reside. If none of these is found, a warning is emitted.
When git is built in a directory that matches neither of these known names,
the warning would always be emitted when the uninstalled executable is run.
This is a problem on Windows, where gitk picks the uninstalled git when
invoked from the build directory and gets confused by the warning.
Print the warning only when GIT_TRACE is set.

I do recall you defended it; good to know that you changed your mind.
Thanks,
