Hello, Petr!

Is cogito 0.17 going to require git 1.2.0? If so, I'm ready to submit a patch for cg-clean that would use the fixed functionality of git regarding ignores when run in subdirectories (commit 701ca744e386c2429ca44072ea987bbb4bdac7ce). I think cg-status can be improved as well.

If cogito 0.17 is not going to require git 1.2.0, I'm ready to add a temporary workaround for older versions of git.

The problem with cg-clean right now is that it removes contents of untracked directories by default, which makes it pointless to keep the directories. I submitted a patch for that, but it it wasn't noticed. Anyway, I can do it better now.

  I didn't plan to require git 1.2.0 with 0.17, so it would be better if
you could do the workaround. But if the workaround means significant
hassle, it's no biggie if git 1.2.0 will be required.

  Hmm, strange, I really did not notice the patch. Well, I'm certainly
interested.

It turns out a proper workaround can only be implemented in cg-Xlib, not in cg-clean. It's a bit hairy for my taste (a bash guru could write it better, I believe), but it's a compact blob of code that can be easily removed at any time.

The patches have been sent by StGIT.

Wow, how you managed to simplify and shrink cg-clean sounds really impressive! :)

Thanks, both applied and pushed out.
