I fairly regularly go crazy finding the monotone root directory in a
workspace with many nested directories.
Here is a perl one liner that solves my problems:
perl -e 'print map { "$_\n" } map { glob "../" x $_ . "_MT[N]" } 0..15'
The last 15 is the maximal nesting depth.
As an example, to go to the monotone inventory directory _MTN:
cd `perl -e 'print map { "$_\n" } map { glob "../" x $_ . "_MT[N]" } 0..15'`
and to go to the root directory of the monotone workspace:
cd `perl -e 'print map { "$_\n" } map { glob "../" x $_ . "_MT[N]" } 0..15'`/..
The perl statement also takes nested workspaces into account, printing
the _MTN directory for each one found.
Obviously you can install this as a shell alias.
