Re: vc-git bug with top-level repositories

Fair enough :)

Well, it seems like vc-git-registered returns t for files in the
top-level git-directory (the directory, where .git resides). It does
however NOT return t for files in subdirectories of where the .git dir
resides.

E.g. in a git-repository in c:/work/foo/ a file c:/work/foo/myfile.txt
is recognized, but c:/work/foo/bar/myotherfile.txt is not.

".git" resides in c:/work/foo ony, naturally.


Any recent changes to vc-git-registered that might have caused this?
