I probably should have mentioned, my run (in all cases) was: git rev-list HEAD -- Makefile 2>/dev/null cheap, a file that exists pretty much everywhere, and that triggers the path limiter in the revision walking code. BTW, I discovered by accident tonight that this works: cp git-rev-list ../git-1444 ../git-1444 rev-list which is so not something I would have expected. :-) I honestly expected the wrapper to puke and say it doesn't know what command 1444 is. -- Shawn.
