(sorry for the short message sent unfinished by mistake). Running things without installing is somewhat tricky, but test framework needs to do that, so there are some things you would need to do. - "git init-db" takes --template argument; in the source area before installing, they are built in templates/blt/. - "git" and programs that need to invoke other git programs (e.g. git-send-pack) expects things to be found in gitexecdir you set when you build. If you are not installing, you need to override that with GIT_EXEC_PATH environment variable. There might be other things, but you should be able to find them from what t/Makefile and t/test-lib.sh do. Having said that, honestly I would not recommend "runnning without installing" unless you know what you are doing ;-). - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.htmlReceived on Fri Apr 21 06:24:10 2006
