Subject: Git attributes ignored for root directory
Date: Tue, 04 Oct 2011 20:52:43 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4E8B55FB.1050203@svario.it> (raw)

Hello,

I just updated to git v1.7.7 using the Ubuntu Lucid PPA and I found that 
`git check-attr` is broken now.

I have this attribute in my `$HOME/.gitattributes` file:

     /. show_in_prompt=no

Now, if I go to `$HOME` and run

     git check-attr show_in_prompt -- .

With git v1.7.6 this is the answer I got:

     .: show_in_prompt: no

With the newer v1.7.7 I get this, instead:

     .: show_in_prompt: unspecified

Also, if I use the `--all` option, `check-attr` does not show any 
attribute at all.

I see in the release notes of 1.7.7-rc1 that `check-attr` has been 
changed to allow relative paths to be specified. Maybe this error is 
related to that change.

Best,
