From 46f721c8fee9f1c027f96e2bf987ce6e7d05ab94 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jeff King Date: Fri, 7 Dec 2007 16:26:07 -0500 Subject: add status.relativePaths config variable The output of git-status was recently changed to output relative paths. Setting this variable to false restores the old behavior for any old-timers that prefer it.
