Subject: [PATCH v2] git-gui: simplify using nice(1)
Date: Wed, 20 Aug 2025 12:50:21 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250820165021.24604-1-mlevedahl@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250820152451.20872-1-mlevedahl@gmail.com>
git-gui invokes some long running commands using "nice git $cmd" if nice
is found and works, otherwise just "git $cmd". The current code is more
complex than needed; lets simplify it.
Signed-off-by: Mark Levedahl <mlevedahl@gmail•com>

updates from v1:
- _which does not return a list, _nice must be a list to handle path
with spaces (should have been in v1, was in another patch - oops)
- Address Kristoffer Haugsbakk's comments
