Subject: git gui does not open bare repositories
Message-ID: <CAB9Jk9CA+e8xR9sz7cW+5+990FmTeYN3pjxs4ZKFpkzb6OL35Q@mail.gmail.com>

Hello,

I have created a bare repository:

$ mkdir remote.git

angelo@ANGELO-PC /d/gtest (master)
$ git init --bare
Initialized empty Git repository in d:/gtest/

and then tried to open it with the git gui, but have got the message:
"remote.git is not a git repository".

The git gui is the one that I have downloaded from the git web site for windows:

gt-gui version 0.16.GITGUI
git version 1.7.11.msysgit.1

Thank you
