Rather than simply check for the presence of
.gitwhengit-saveexists, rungit rev-parse --is-inside-work-treeand replace the.gitdirectory when it returns an error. This will fix corrupted.gitdirectories left over from previous builds, as well as missing.gitdirectories.Was inspired to make this change when my build farm animal started failing builds after a couple of runs with this error:
The
.gitdirectory did in fact exist, but there wasn't much in it:But
git-savehad much more:I have no idea how or why the directory was corrupted, but this patch fixes the issue by restoring an uncorrupted
.gitdirectory.
