For what it's worth, my hack to work around this is to define $GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES in my ~/.bashrc: GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES=/afs/umich.edu:/afs/.umich.edu (Obviously, all I care about is my home 'umich.edu' cell) This doesn't fix anything related to the afsdb/dynroot lookup that's causing the problem, but it does stop git from misbehaving. -- Jonathan Billings <[email protected]> College of Engineering - CAEN - Unix and Linux Support
