From: Patrick Steinhardt Date: Tue, 30 Jun 2026 11:47:47 +0000 (+0200) Subject: setup: drop static `cwd` variable X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=405c001bf454da4c7b58fe8b3a23d7fa76397773;p=thirdparty%2Fgit.git setup: drop static `cwd` variable The current working directory is stored as part of a static strbuf variable. This variable had to have a lifetime longer than its containing function because the value we return typically points into that buffer. In the preceding commit we have moved the prefix into the repository though. Consequently, we can now return the repository's prefix instead of the local one and thus properly manage the lifecycle of this local variable.
