genpathGIT.m

function p = genpathGIT(d)
%GENPATH Generate recursive toolbox path.
%   P = GENPATH returns a new path string by adding all the subdirectories 
%   of MATLABROOT/toolbox, including empty subdirectories. 
%
%   P = GENPATH(D) returns a path string starting in D, plus, recursively, 
%   all the subdirectories of D, including empty subdirectories.
%   
%   NOTE 1: GENPATH will not exactly recreate the original MATLAB path.
%
%   NOTE 2: GENPATH only includes subdirectories allowed on the MATLAB
%   path.
%
%   See also PATH, ADDPATH, RMPATH, SAVEPATH.
