From 7a5375395f8104a8679f9482e0c5faf60e7e9e54 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Junio C Hamano Date: Sun, 3 Feb 2008 22:37:58 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] fix misuse of prefix_path() When DEFAULT_GIT_TEMPLATE_DIR is specified as a relative path, init-db made it relative to exec_path using prefix_path(), which is wrong. prefix_path() is about a file inside the work tree. There was a similar misuse in config.c that takes relative ETC_GITCONFIG path. A convenience function prefix_filename() can concatenate two paths to form a path that points at somewhere outside the work tree. Use it in these codepaths instead.
