From f9ad901fd31991837c9648bbee8ac18b39aa0891 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Aguilar Date: Wed, 25 May 2011 23:21:01 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] git-mergetool--lib: Make vimdiff retain the current directory MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit When using difftool with vimdiff it can be unexpected that the current directory changes to the root of the project. Tell vim to chdir to the value of $GIT_PREFIX to fix this. Care is taken to quote the variable so that vim expands it. This avoids problems when directory names contain spaces.
