It would be nice if there was at least a way to specify some TMPDIR
instead of the current directory in such a situation.
This is a bug in git-diff-* (producing the second error message; the first
error message means failed git-update-cache --refresh but that isn't
fatal). Any reason why prep_temp_blob() works in . instead of $TMPDIR?
I do not know about the first message (cachefile), but the 2nd one is
trivial to fix. I implemented a function called git_mkstemp() (path.c
and so in libgit) which places the tmpfiles in $TMPDIR and if it's not
set in /tmp. The is close to what other programs do.
There are other references to mkstemp() in git where one or two of them
may use git_mkstemp() instead, but not in sha1_file.c, since it
hardlinks it later on.
