Would that help?
The second GIT_DIR must not use the .gitignore files of the first GIT_DIR, so it does not help. Only way to skip the .gitignore files in git-add is to use "git add -f ." but that skips all excludes, including the .git/info/exclude. I need to skip .gitignore files used by the other GIT_DIR and still have some of ignore rules, IMO this is not possible at the moment. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
