Subject: [PATCH Cogito] Make cg-Xnormid use $_git and $_git_objects
Message-ID: <20050529010057.GA7520@diku.dk>
URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/20050529010057.GA7520%40diku.dk

```
The recently introduced cg-Xnormid accesses .git and .git/objects
directly which is not consistent with the current behavior so source
cg-Xlib to get access to the $_git and $_git_objects variables.

BTW, both commit-id and tree-id needs to be patched to find the
installed cg-Xnormid.

	+normid=$(${COGITO_LIB}cg-Xnormid "$id") || exit 1
