git: run in a directory given with -C option
This is similar in spirit to "make -C dir ..." and "tar -C dir ...". It takes more keypresses to invoke git command in a different directory without leaving the current directory: 1. (cd ~/foo && git status) git --git-dir=~/foo/.git --work-dir=~/foo status GIT_DIR=~/foo/.git GIT_WORK_TREE=~/foo git status 2. (cd ../..; git grep foo) 3. for d in d1 d2 d3; do (cd $d && git svn rebase); done The methods shown above are acceptable for scripting but are too cumbersome for quick command line invocations. With this new option, the above can be done with fewer keystrokes: 1. git -C ~/foo status 2. git -C ../.. grep foo 3. for d in d1 d2 d3; do git -C $d svn rebase; done A new test script is added to verify the behavior of this option with other path-related options like --git-dir and --work-tree.

help ...`.
|
||||
|
||||
-C <path>::
|
||||
Run as if git was started in '<path>' instead of the current working
|
||||
directory. When multiple `-C` options are given, each subsequent
|
||||
non-absolute `-C <path>` is interpreted relative to the preceding `-C
|
||||
<path>`.
|
||||
+
|
||||
This option affects options that expect path name like `--git-dir` and
|
||||
`--work-tree` in that their interpretations of the path names would be
|
||||
made relative to the working directory caused by the `-C` option. For
|
||||
example the following invocations are equivalent:
|
||||
|
||||
git --git-dir=a.git --work-tree=b -C c status
|
||||
git --git-dir=c/a.git --work-tree=c/b status
|
||||
|
||||
-c <name>=<value>::
|
||||
Pass a configuration parameter to the command. The value
|
||||
given will override values from configuration files.
