Sebb commented on WHIMSY-109:
-----------------------------
Turns out it's trivial to do:
{code}
Open3.capture3(*%(git config --get remote.origin.url), {chdir: path})
{code}
However there are many more instances of Dir.chdir in the code - do they all
need fixing, or is it not a problem?
> Code uses Dir.chdir and Dir.pwd without sync

> Key: WHIMSY-109
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WHIMSY-109
> Project: Whimsy
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Sebb
> Assignee: Sebb
>
> The lib/whimsy code uses Dir.chdir in two places:
> asf/git.rb and svn.rb
> These are done under Mutex synchronisation.
> However AFAICT they use different instances of the Mutex.
> Also, there is an instance of Dir.pwd in the file asf/rack.rb
> This does not use a Mutex at all.
> So unless there is some other mutual exclusion occurring, there is a
> potential for confusion over the actual working directory.
