Subject: org-attach + git annex not working
Date: Sat, 02 May 2015 12:59:40 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <55452cc1.c28e440a.4541.ffff8b76@mx.google.com> (raw)

Hi all,

I am trying to get org-attach to work with git-annex, but there is a
bug that prevents it working.

org-attach checks if there is an annex directory in the results of
(vc-git-root org-attach-directory) in order to decide whether to use
git-annex. But the annex directory is a subdir of the .git dir, and
vc-git-root returns the path to the directory that contains .git, not
the .git path itself, e.g. /foo not /foo/.git

I don’t know if the behavior of vc-git-root has changed, but I don’t
see anything in the emacs git log for vc/vc-git.el and it seems to
have the same behavior in 24 & 25.

The following patch fixes this issue.

diff --git a/lisp/org-attach.el b/lisp/org-attach.el
